I found this news article and wanted to share it. It didn't seem to merit its own thread, and this is the best fit I could find, since it combines animal rights and bureaucracy gone completely bloody stupid.
Don't get me wrong - I have quite a bit of time for animal rights, but this is just silly. Quote:

I don't think worms have the capacity to be any of the above. I believe the fact that the worms have a life at all is probably the highest fulfillment of wormhood possible.

Geez, pretty soon we'll be asking the plants if we can take the fruit from their limbs, pick their flowers or collect seeds from the ground.

Worms don't scream loudly at random times for no apparent reason, though.
At least, not that I've ever seen. Anyone?

Hmmmm...don't worms live best in compost? Isn't that like heaven to worms? So much food, so little time...ooops...time to shit...oh well, better start eating again...ooops...time to shit....ZZZzzzzzz...better start eating again...ooops...time to shit...etc etc etc...
They don't even have to worry about being eaten by birds!

I'd forgotten about this thread.
I can't remember the exact details now, but the relevant authorities basically agreed that the fish should be destroyed at the end of her experiment. Something along those lines. Common sense prevailed I guess.
