I once had a Behavioral Psych professor talk about how there was no conclusive evidence that smoking causes cancer. And how he knew of an experiment where they put these masks on dogs (beagles) that basically forced them to smoke cigarettes to try to prove it one way or the other. That's AWFUL.
That's horrible. I don't agree on animal research if:
a) It's something frivolous or useless, like cosmetics or perfume.
b) It puts animal to horrible tortures, like burning them alive or something.
c) It has warfare purpouses, like testing weapons.
d) It's done on dangered species like dolphins or monkeys.
Now, how does one FORCE a dog to smoke? Surreal...

That's very creepy.
