Some people just have nothing better to do than complain. Take this article for instance. Yes, shooting animals is bad, but where else would you rather troops practice triage on live subjects? Maybe draw straws and randomly shoot the soldiers who drew the shortest straws? Civilian volunteers? Shoot POWs?
They mention a trauma simulator but nothing really simulates treating real wounds like treating real wounds. If a few wounded pigs can provide the experience to save the life of even 1 soldier, I say shoot the pigs.

In the police academy, one of the highlights is pepper-spraying the cadets so they know what it feels like. It stands to reason shooting each other so they can pratice triage is the next step.
No?
Really?
Ok, I guees I get it....
Please fix my typo, I didn't intend it to highlight the absurdity of my comment.
lol felina.
Seriously, at what point do we burn and shoot animals for "the benefit of mankind" different from doing it for leisure?
im already iffy to use them for medical studies. it's one thing to kill animals for food. its another to injury them, heal them, and then reinjure them.
