It is sickening to learn what my own country's military is doing to pigs, goats, and other animals under the guise of "trauma training". StopAnimalTests.com gives a few examples:
"During one of these training exercises, a Navy corpsman told The New York Times that instructors 'shot [his pig] twice in the face with a 9-millimeter pistol, and then six times with an AK-47 and then twice with a 12-gauge shotgun. And then he was set on fire.' In another trauma-training exercise, the San Antonio Express-News described a course in which 990 living goats had their legs broken and amputated."
Sign these petitions, to end these exercises NOW.
