Difficult to admit yeah, but the lab mouse had an incredible CV in medicine
or, adopt them as pets as a graduation present
Is that permitted?
Depending on the study, yes.
Yes, if there is no need to collect tissues or anything
Not in the EU I’m pretty sure
My sister did, you just need approval from some government offices so you don’t get mice that’ve had rabies-ebola-smallpox-anthrax tested on them getting out
Kill-joy bureaucrats…
Im in the EU, and quite a few of the biology students had labrats as pets.
I’m guessing those infected or mutated in ways harmful aren’t allowed?
Usually, if the mouse is infected or mutated in a given manner, its innards would need to be removed and studied, to determine what effects the mutation/infection had on them. This kills the mouse.
For some reason, I was under the impression not all infected mice were actually studied. Thanks so much for your kind reply.
This kills the mouse.
Couldn’t they just put them back?
Nah it’s like how if you touch A baby bird it’s mom won’t take it back, the body rejects the insidey bits when it has human funk on them.
I mean, in my opinion skinny pigs have been mutated in a harmful way, just not as a result of whatever tests they were subjected to. But if you have a pet scrotum, you can knit it little sweaters so it isn’t constantly shivering
😂 Forgot to add “for humans.”
Unrealistic, labs use skinny pigs for more efficient sampling
I clicked because the picture was cute. Could the text be any more difficult to parse?
HOT GRAD STUDENT DOING MOUSE RESEARCH TICKLES MOUSE TO MAKE IT HAPPY THEN CUTS ITS HEAD OFF OR KILLS IT IN A GAS CHAMBER AFTER USING THE MOUSE TO COLLECT DATA FOR HER RESEARCH CAUSE THATZ WHAT WE DO
“This is I, when the attractive biochemistry student tickles me in the stomach. Unbeknownst to me, I will be later killed by her as part of her research.”
Tks 4 expl8/10ning it (to me)
