Inhumane experimental surgery on animals

  • Vivisection

Nature

Animals are subjected to experimental burns, parabiosis (the surgical connection of two individuals), grafting of limbs or organs (possibly from other species), displacement of limbs to other locations on the body, and mutilation of genitalia to observe changes in mating habits. Demonstration surgery on animals may also be performed for educational purposes.
