It’s stuff like this, that makes me so Anti-Vegan. I’m sure no matter how much the scientists claimed they aren’t stressing the clams out. Animals rights activists would still say this is a big no-no. I for one, believe that we as humans have to create viability for animals. In order to protect them. If we as humans don’t see the immediate benefit of an animal. We will wipe it off the face of the earth, efficacy be damned.
