We are not right to use any other Being to serve our own ends to the detriment of their wholesomeness, and their lives. I was just about to say I wouldn't want any body part which had been grown on an animal causing distress, and finally euthanisation. I would honestly rather pass away with palliative care, if it were a matter of life and death. If it were simply 'cosmetic' (such as the loss of an ear etc) then I would rather live with the disfigurement.
Then I thought of the little children who may be in dire situations and need organ replacements....
They are not like me.
However, growing human body parts on or in animals is the stuff of nightmares. Surely there has to be another way? I'm sure there IS another way, but animals are the first thought for scientists as using them is probably more 'cost effective'! (How cynical can I be??)
