So, I've suddenly remembered a few details from my glory days in the big brick prison we called Rogers High School.
Speaking as far as DNA and anatomy, our hairy knuckle-dragging banana-fueled friends are closest to humans. Yet I also remember one oh-so-loathed science teacher telling me that mice and rats were used because biologically, they are more similar to humans.
So. What is the purpose of using little paws 'n' whiskers as test subjects rather than the fecal-tossin' fiends? Is it cost, or something with an actual fact-base?
