The secretive dog experimentation industry is crumbling

Animal rights advocates often contrast humanity’s dismal treatment of animals farmed for food with our adoration bordering on worship of pet cats and dogs — the point being that these distinctions between animals that are equally sentient are arbitrary, hypocritical, and pointlessly cruel.  The comparison makes an important point, but it also conceals a grimmer […] Read more
