*Why* are these wonderful little fuzzbutts sent to labs? What do the labs
do to them? What tests are run on ferrets? Are they painful? Is there a
reason for it? Would anyone on this Digest want to see a fuzzbutt harmed in
any way? Are we supposed to believe "scientists" when they say the torture
of animals is necessary for medical progress?
*PLEASE* say it isn't so!!
