It's hard to choose from either of these monsters. If pushed, I would have to say Stuart "the driller" Zola is the bigger BEAST!
God help all these cruel creatures of the human race.

Our 1st female murderer! What a hypocrite to say the least! I just hope her daughter/son doesn't follow in their mother's footsteps, pretty sad! But Stuart Zola, WOW! Restraining baby, innocent monkeys in a chair for hours while having their brains sliced. What a big man you are you sick sadistic freak!! If this is so fun for you all, why don't we reverse the roles. You know, kinda like trading spaces!

Speaking on behalf of my fellow vivisectors, I feel we're getting a bum rap here on the PETA Files (not that I mind a good bum rapping now and again). Believe me, we have our standards. Matter of fact, to ensure that only the cream of the intellectual crop can join our inner circle (please, no rude comments about circle jerks—those are strictly reserved for Saturday nights), a stringent exam must be passed by all prospective applicants to the vivisectionary illuminati. To demonstrate how we screen out the proletariat riff-raff, I'll reveal a sampling of this secret exam here. You'll see we're not such bad guys, so don't jump to concussions about us.
 

How well can you bunny-huggers do on the test questions below?:
 
1) The common fly has wings on it that enable it to do what?
 
2) What is the square root of 1?
 
3) What American city does the song "New York, New York" refer to?
 
4) In reference to the songs by the Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion in "The Wizard Of Oz", what is a vivisector lacking when it comes to having a: A) heart, B) brain or C) courage?
 
1) All of the above
2) A, B and C
3) D
 
 
5) The common fly has wings on it that enable a vivisector to do what?:
 
A) Pluck them off
B) Rip them off
C) Tear them off
D) All of the above
 
 
6) What does it mean when a lab animal cries out in pain and anguish?
 
A) Scientific progress is being made
B) The assistant forgot to cut out the animal's vocal cords
C) I'm singing off-key
 
 
7) Who said, "I am not interested to know whether vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. The pain which it inflicts upon unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity toward it, and it is to me sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further"?:
 
A) Mark Twain
B) Samuel Langhorne Clemens
C) A person obviously a lot smarter than us vivisectors
D) All of the above
 
 
8) The over-riding scientific objective behind vivisection is:
 
A) Money
B) Filthy Lucre
C) Hah! What scientific objective
D) What's filthy about lucre?
 
 
9) What is the phone number for 411?

10) What are pharmacogenomics, in vitro tests, epidemiology, clinical research, microdosing, DNA chips, computer modeling, etc.?

A) The new lounge act at Caesars
B) Danged if I know—all I know about is science.
C) Non-animal, cutting-edge technologies that will put us out of business if we don't wise up and join the 21st century.

Although that horrible woman

Sick bastard.
The thought that our tax dollars are going towards animal abuse makes me ill.

Zola. but they're both horendous!
how can my tax dollars go to such horrid things? why is it that there are people in this country who can't afford health care, and we still use tax money to slice monkeys' brains up? Is it just me, or is this just plain stupid?

Posted by: Emily | October 19, 2007 07:22 PM

Haha at Maria Sanchez, didn't she do an ad for PETA? Oh wait, that was Elvira, sorry my mistake, they could be sisters! Maria Sanchez looks like she has an allergy to shellfish and just ate an entire lobster! But I have to say, her research has been done before, it was used in the early days of modern psychology by Harry F. Harlow who would remove monkeys from their mothers shortly after being born and used to use a board wrapped in tea-towel as a decoy mother. It was sad to watch (he filmed his experiments), because the monkey was alone in it's cage and treated this inanimate object like it was it's mother, because it simply had nothing else, saying that - now days his results are deemed void, because the experiments were to help humans, but the psychology of primates in cages and humans in modern civilisation, although metaphorically similar, quite simple put is not the same. It seems this Elvira look-a-like has learnt nothing from Harry F. Harlow (who also used to torment mothers with Iron Maidens and after much other cruel and sadistic torture, he tried to rehabilitate the monkeys, only to fail) it's that testing psychology or practically anything on monkeys will not apply to humans.
Although I find Stuart Zola's practices just as stupid, he's getting monkeys doped up to test if it causes brain damage resulting in memory loss? Just look at Ozzy Osbourne. They don't call it "dope" for fun. And you don't need to slice their brains open to test this. Both of these humans are belligerent morons who wouldn't know a valid scientific test if it kicked them in the face (unfortunately, the only beings being hit in the face will most likely be these monkeys), but my vote will have to go to Stuart Zola, because this is nearly as stupid as that joke video of seeing whether stabbing monkeys may 'result in death'.

Posted by: Marianne | October 19, 2007 07:55 PM

Mike, I can see how the descriptions about Zola and Sanchez would prompt you to write such a comment. These people are just sick bastards who are profiting from animal pain and suffering. I have tears in my eyes after reading about these psychopaths.

It is always hard to decide which sadist is the worst from the choices provided by PETA, but I have to say Zola gets my vote this week. Zola just seems to be dreaming up new and "improved" ways of hurting these innocent animals, and when he cannot elicit the reaction he wants, he moves on to increasingly sickening tests.

How can these atrocities be condoned, and even worse, financed?????? These so-called scientists are sick, twisted, cruel f***ers, who do not deserve to be on this earth.

Stuart Zola

One of the nation's leading neuroscientists, Stuart Zola, PhD, has contributed valuable insights into how the brain organizes memory and how this relates to memory problems such as amnesia. He also is regarded as a leader in the movement to better communicate science and research to the public.

As the director of the Yerkes National Primate Research Center, Dr. Zola oversees diverse research programs that address health issues such as AIDS, malaria and other infectious diseases, cocaine addiction, childhood visual deficits, organ transplantation and cognitive development and decline. Scientists at Yerkes also study social behavior in nonhuman primates.

Dr. Zola's own research focuses on memory, its formation, consolidation and retrieval. He is perhaps best known for developing an animal model of human amnesia that conclusively identified brain structures critical to memory function. His research has contributed significant insights into the memory loss in humans that results from head trauma and characterizes progressive diseases such as Alzheimer's. His research also has provided knowledge about less severe memory problems that often accompany depression, chronic stress and normal aging.

Maria Sanchez

Maria del Mar Sanchez, Ph.D. (Young Investigator 2002) of Emory University, will analyze cellular and molecular alterations in neural systems in juvenile rhesus monkeys that have experienced separation from their mothers and social group. From this model, Dr. Sanchez hopes to investigate how early adverse experience affects the development of neurocircuits regulating the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) and hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axes as well as systems mediating fear and anxiety. Increasing evidence indicates that the experience of early adversity may interact with the genetic background to increase n individual's vulnerability to the development of anxiety and affective disorders: therefore, Dr. Sanchez will study mechanisms which may contribute to the risk for development of mood disorders.

Hey Michele,

Glad you had a great honeymoon. I haven't tried those products before—will have to check them out.

Speaking of "Toxic Sludge Is Good For You" and "Trust Us We're Experts", I decided to buy my own copy of "Toxic" from their website (www.prwatch.org). It was 16.95 and it cost them 10 bucks to ship it to Canada. So it was a great deal and they are both totally engrossing books.

Posted by: Mike Quinoa | October 20, 2007 11:19 PM

Sanchez gets my vote. As a mother herself she should know better. But then again, maybe she hasn't got any maternal instincts at all. She will hopefully burn in hell for what she does next to Zola - who certainly isn't a scientist but a psychopath, sadist who enjoys torturing. My guess is that he is impotent

It seems as if you tried your very best to sound intelligent and witty. You failed. You and your fellow vivisectors are nothing but pathetic excuses for human beings. Please take your silly writings elsewhere.

To answer your question then you'd have to read their papers.Seems that they are currently in research and it has not been concluded.Like all of the people PETA holds these "votes" on most will find they have benefitted from their research in one form or another.

I don't have a problem with copying and pasting, but what does regurgitating their hype prove? Saying we have benefitted from their research is pure hypothesis.

Animal research, which cannot be reliably and predictably extrapolated to humans, is one of the main reasons that adverse drug reactions killed over 100,000 Americans in 1996 (JAMA).

I really enjoyed your post!
Although we know vivesection is not funny, you had such a VERY, VERY clever way of expressing the REALLY stupid mentality of the vivesectors, which is TRUE! Your special comments gave a real insight into their stupid psychotic minds and disgusting, worthless purpose!
Actually, I really think PeTA should paste a copy of your comments so all of us could type in our names and e-addresses to it - like we do with all the other e-letters - and have it be e-mailed to every vivesector so they can read for themselves just how mindless they are besides uncompassionate!
Keep up the great work!

Mars, you are such an idiot and a f--ck face. I have a colleague whose husband also conveniently and proudly defends animal testing.

According to him, humans would not be alive if animal testing didn't happen...what a f--cking piece of shitface.

He proudly told me a story where his "expert" team conveniently killed 50 rabbits in a span of 5-10 minutes in what they called a "wave experiment". They did this experiment 6-7 times. The sad part is that their research did not get published because their results were flawed and they think they know a lot about human and animal bodies but they are just a bunch of idiots who did not get much love growing up.

Now, how did their research affect anyone's life?

"Animal research, which cannot be reliably and predictably extrapolated to humans, is one of the main reasons that adverse drug reactions killed over 100,000 Americans in 1996 (JAMA)."

Mars,

Nice cut and copy job again! "Animal research, which cannot be reliably and predictably extrapolated to humans, is one of the main reasons that adverse drug reactions killed over 100,000 Americans in 1996 (JAMA)."

In a way, you contradicted yourself. If your reading skills were good enough, you would try to at least understand the statement above before cutting and copying it on the blog. The statement above clearly says that "animal research, which cannot be reliably and predictably extrapolated to humans". Do you understand what this means...it means that we cannot correlate findings from animal research to humans.

And to answer your statement on adverse drug events, what the authors of this study reported was when our stupid pharmacists (by virtue not being able to understand doctor's handwriting) or doctors prescribe wrong medicines to people. That is why they are using electronic prescribing rather than hand written prescriptions.

Next time you might want to brush up on your reading skills as well as do a little research before making an ass of yourself.

Posted by: Vegoconics | November 3, 2007 04:27 PM

Me thinks your reading is the one that needs worked on vego.

The statement was that animal testing is why 100,000 people died and my remark was that because of animal testing is why that number is not 1,000,000.. Get it yet?

With animal testing,100,000

Without animal testing, 1,000,000
