Save the bunnies!

Today was wound repair day, the majority of which was spent lacerating and then repairing pig's feet, which I always enjoy more that one might imagine. Somehow, the topic of wound research was raised, and one of the physicians brought up the methodology behind one of the major studies on how the size of injury relates to the risk of infection.

So how was it done? Basically, the researchers dropped heavier and heavier weights onto bunny rabbits, exposed them to bacteria, and observed which bunnies got the most infected.

I would like you to keep in mind, next time you rub on some neosporin, or put on a bandaid, or get stitches, that partially responsible for the healing of your injury, is a squished bunny.

Thank you bunnies.
