Yes 67%

Experiment on animals to determine marijuana affects such as pain threshold, physical activity, behavior mood, according to dosage. Also long term affects such as organs compared to control subject, etc., can be observed on short-lived animals.

A legit scientific experiment to test the effects of marijuana on an animal with provides answers to question we have on effects of marijuana on us.

I'd prefer it if they would just experiment on the general population from 3rd world nations, like Uzbekistan, the USA, Somalia, etc.

Well, i don't like the idea but there's isn't any other way to test this stuff. If there is i'm not familiar with it.

Its not exactly ideal, but there is no better alternative and it beats testing on live humans.

Test on people with no sympathy for animals first.

Test it on our leaders with no empathy! So pretty much all of them.

Rather it should be done on Criminals, like serial rapists etc. Leave animals alone and let science continue to progress and do some more accurately.

Of course. Modern medicine is largely reliant on animal testing.

Why test marijuana on animals when you have so many ready and willing humans to test it out?

I think it's awful we sent monkeys to outer space, but it was necessary...so moral of the story is it sucks, but we got to do experiments to see if it's safe for mankind

Yes, lets teach monkeys to be actors because we need to replace the God awful Sam Worthington.

Rare indeed it would be to be falsely convicted of serial killing and being a serial rapist. Don't think it's ever happened.

Still a bad idea
