PETITION: Torture of Sparrows at Yale University
#1
(I put this here so as not to displace new threads on the petition section and a couple of other sections. It can be moved later on.)

Experimenter at Yale University Christine Lattin, has been systematically torturing Sparrows since 2008 to induce fear and stress, even when the results of such horrific torture won't even be of any help to humans, or other bird species.

It's time she was stopped!

PETA has already filed a complaint with the District Attorney, but the petition is needed also.

Great minds think alike. You posted this while I was feeding the guinea pigs.

I can't believe she has funding to perform acts of animal cruelty over and over again. The fact that this has been going on for years is even more alarming. She must have some kind of research assistants. Did no one think to report her.

Just because you do it in the name of research on a university campus does not excuse you from basic ethics. There is no way you can call torturing sparrows ethical research. If you had a child who tortured one sparrow you would be getting that child some serious psychological help. This woman must be a very cold, strange person indeed.

I think we need some more sections. It is easy to do. I just need to think of names for them.

Just signed. A sick and misguided lady, if ever there was one.

This looks like her website:
https://www.christinelattin.com

Does her funding include the costs of having her own research website, I wonder?

Here is her Twitter account, for anyone who wants to post there: https://twitter.com/c_lattin/

Yale University is a prestigious centre of learning and I am shocked that they allowed this to go on -for so long!

I have a Twitter account and may make good use of it in a polite but sharp way. Thank you LPC.

I find it hard to understand why a researcher considers cruelty to be science and why a university like Yale is willing to condone it.
Christine does not look like someone who would act that way. She seems to care about ecology and environmental issues.

Wouldn't it make more sense to study the birds by observing them. Whatever she is trying to observe, the results are influenced by what she does to the birds. I think the results are meaningless and the birds have suffered for nothing.

I wonder if she ever thinks about all the lives she has taken. Those birds just wanted to live out their lives in peace.

Good luck with Twitter. Someone should say something to her.
