I thought Sean Pywell was most eloquent on the subject. Clearly, on going studies are essential to monitor any aspect of the environment. The simple issue is when does the return of hard fact fall below a level which is acceptable, particular if significant suffering (mortality?) is involved. Swift decapitation may not really be that inhumane compared with say rodent poison/traps which seem to be perfectly acceptable to society ay large. cheers Milburn *********************************************************** Dr.Peter Milburn Biomolecular Resource Facility The Australian Nation University GPO Box 334 Canberra ACT 2601 AUSTRALIA Phone No. <61> <6> 2494326 Fax No. <61> <6> 2490735 E-mail Address *********************************************************** |
