Haha, i saw this in the news and KNEW someone would put a link here for it.
I have a lot larger tolerance for stuff like this when it is done for science instead of entertainment. I mean... someone has to get some sheep tweaked and tase them at least once, or we would never know what happens when you do.

Ah, optimism in tweaking sheep ;)
Yep, its research. But not for science; its for the Taser manufacturers. And its not good science: no control group. They didn't tase sober sheep and compare. See, cause THAT would be cruel...
That's got to be one of the worst cases of animal cruelty I have heard of to date...

Then you haven't been listening long. The cosmetics industry commits much worse than this daily in the name of beauty fer crissakes! But I agree its in the top three.
Who's the guy that decided to organize and partake in that study? Needs more universe-in-universe study.
