What animal should I choose for my animal abuse paper?
Q. For school I have to write a paper on animal abuse. I can only pick one animal that's abused to write it on, though. Which animal would be the easiest to write about? Links and information would be helpful, thank you.

A. Try to think of a really cute animal, or one that looks really sad. I think the younger, the more attention they will attract. Try a puppy, a kitten, or something like that. Good luck! =)

What animal should my evil character turn into?
Q. In my story people can turn into a specific animal. I can't think of an animal the evil MC should turn into. The animals they turn into should reflect their personality. My character worships ice and death, he's just evil; no other way to put it. So what kind of animal should he turn into? PS His name is Skadi.

Please don't post how irresponsible I am. I have lots of time and the animal would be out of it's cage alot. If someone does end up finding out then I have a place lined up that would take it.

A. I've had both and they are both pretty noisy. My guinea pigs were the worst for it, as they used to squeak whenever I was around. This is their way of asking for attention, food and just generally having a chat. As others have said, rabbits thump a lot. I'm in a similar position to you and I missed animals so much, so I got some more. I started out with a Syrian hamster, who obviously doesn't making a lot of noise in terms of talking but does when it comes to the climbing on her cage bars and running on her wheel. The thing about hamsters is they really can't be without a wheel, so there's no way around it. It's cruel to keep them without one. Then there's my gerbils who are very quiet. They live in a tank, so there is no noise from them… [cont.]

A. Answers for questions 1 and 2: An animal scientist is anyone who studies a type or types of animals. It is a very wide, open field that can cover everything from genetics to ecology to behavior and it covers any animal that the scientist wishes to study. Usually an animal scientist will focus on a certain group of animals and a certain topic within that field. Answers for questions 3 and 4: A veterinary technician is specifically trained to assist a veterinarian in the care and treatment of animals. A veterinary technician focuses more on the care of many types of animals rather that just one or two. That being said, vet techs and animal scientists overlap.

What percentage of Animal testing is actually done for important medical purposes?
Q. I'm writing a personal essay about my opinions on animal testing, and I need to know roughly what percentage of animal testing/experimentation is actually done for medical purposes (such as testing drugs), and not for testing food, cosmetics, household products, or for doing research on animal behavior. Please & thank you. I'm asking because one source says only 6 percent, while the other sources are saying that the majority of animal testing is for medical purposes

A. Although your question is simple, I'm afraid it's impossible to answer. Firstly, which animals? Animal testing goes on all over the world. Secondly, how do you define "important" medical purposes? I've read that literally 12 million animals are annually tested upon and then "destroyed" by scientific, corporate, and even military organizations (see link to article). I myself avoid spending one thin dime of my hard earned money supporting companies that needlessly test on animals (like cosmetics, shampoos, toothpaste, fragrance, and the like). I never thought that I'd become one of these vegetarian, only buy at The Body Shop or LUSH for makeup, etc.--but guess what? It's a matter of conscience. Good luck with your inquiry--you're… [cont.]

A. Not quite sure how to answer those questions... Well about the religious one...in some religions dogs were regarded as dirty so they were not treated so well..(I believe this is more true now in the Middle East section, maybe some Asian countries) In Asia, they eat dogs. And in some Asian countries they worship cows. Over here in the US we love our dogs like children and don't think twice about eating cows. We regard eating dogs as cruel, and the Asians think eating cows is cruel. Animal cruelty needs to be taken more seriously.

I would love to help spread the word for animals in dire need of homes, but what educational requirements are required to work in an animal shelter?

A. Start by volunteering your time with an animal shelter. If you plan to make a career out of it, you can go back to school and get a vet Tech Degree. The animal shelters have good people working there already and they are always willing to bring in more and educate them as well. however the best thing to do is start by volunteering at any local animal shelter as they are always looking for people to help and will gladly take you. This way you are not spending a lot of money on continuing education just to find out caring for animals is not for you. There is always more to the care of a abandoned pet then most people think so it will be a great way to actually see if this is what you want to do with your life. Truthfully some people can… [cont.]

A. You will need plants to provide oxygen into the ecosystem and food for the animal. You will want an herbivore that eats slowly. Get a small animal (like aphids, which feed on plant fluid). Try getting a couple of large plants and many aphids, as well as some earthworms. If the plants are legumes, then everything should go well.

A. they don't go and search for human diseases in animals any more. They put the relevant genes for the disease into the animal (usually a mouse, but it might also be a fruit fly) if they are known or they test the effect of candidate genes. A lot of that work is done in cell cultures, but I have to tell you unless it is an immortalized cell culture a cell culture comes from an animal which may have to be killed to obtain the cells. So not all cell cultures keep an animal alive. I don't think your number is correct. Also it really depends what you want to look at. You cannot look at e.g. the effect of a proposed drug on the circulatory system in a cell culture. It is much easier to look for gene products or gene activation in a particular… [cont.]
