WISC-TV Editorial Director Neil Heinen wonders who's in charge. So do we.
"The WISC Editorial Board has been studying the issue of conducting research experiments on monkeys and all I can tell you is we haven't reached a consensus yet. It is a complex issue and we've heard compelling arguments on both sides of it. We're still working on it.
In the meantime though, Rick Marolt who opposes the use of monkeys for research has made a case for changes in the oversight of primate research at the University of Wisconsin that we believe deserves immediate attention. Marolt wants an appropriate body to consider the ethical issues he believes are at stake. The problem is no one can give him a straight answer on what that appropriate body is. The head of the research oversight committee tells Marolt the faculty senate is in charge. Chancellor Biddy Martin tells him the oversight committee is in charge. It seems like nobody is in charge. And somebody should be.
We believe the UW does take these ethical issues seriously. But that effort must be public and open to question. An appropriate faculty group should investigate the matter and take a stand."
Watch Neil Heinen's editorial here.
Cows used for milk have their babies taken from them shortly after birth. Just like humans, cows love their babies and want nothing but to cuddle with them, love them, and feed them with the milk intended for them alone.
When their babies are taken from them, mother cows bellow, they cry, they moan. Many continue to call for days and nights; some withdraw in silent grief.
See a Wisconsin dairy farm where the babies are not allowed to be with their mothers; instead are bottle fed, while their mothers get "milked" for human consumption.
There is every bit as much suffering and death in a glass of milk or a slice of cheese as there is in a steak. Animals exploited for dairy are treated as badly if not worse than those raised for meat, and they end up in the same slaughterhouse after which we consume their flesh anyway.

Boycott Budget Bicycle!
If you're thinking about purchasing a new or used bicycle, please do not shop at Budget Bicycle. Owner Roger Charly swindled activists whom he had promised to sell a piece of rea lestate--between the UW's Primate Research Center and the Harry Harlow lab--for a handsome sum. He used his false promise to them to parlay a deal for $1,000,000 with the university. One who values dollors over innocent lives and endless horrific suffering is not to be trusted. Shop elsewhere, please.
