Three Animal Experiments Science Would Rather Forget

Transcript

1. 0:00THEY WON'T REPEAT THESE. Three animal experiments science would rather forget. The last is darkest.
2. 0:05THE TYCHOSCOPE. A robot built to move randomly. Newborn chicks imprinted on it as mom.
3. 0:10BEFORE vs AFTER. Caged across the room, they allegedly pulled it closer than chance predicted.
4. 0:14PLANARIAN. Flatworms. Cut one in half, and the tail grows a new brain.
5. 0:18MEMORY CANNIBALS. Trained worms were fed to untrained ones. Those allegedly learned faster.
6. 0:22STILL UNSOLVED. Replications were mixed. Yet labs now ask if memory lives beyond the brain.
7. 0:27COLD WAR STORY. Last: a mother rabbit wired up on shore. Her babies, on a submarine.
8. 0:33NEVER VERIFIED. Killed on schedule. The story says she spiked the moment each one died.
9. 0:37THE MOTHER KNOWS?. No solid proof. But dogs still won't leave a dying owner's bed.
10. 0:41ETHICS OR COVER-UP?. Bad science, or questions nobody dares fund?
