The U.S. Army has again failed in its attempt to get permission to use live animals in experiments they intend to conduct at the Grafenwoehr training grounds in eastern Bavaria.

The Upper Palatine government in Regensburg rejected the Army’s request for permission on the grounds that the experiments were not “ethically defensible,” in the words of a government spokesman last Friday.

The U.S. Army intended to inflict serious wounds on anesthetized pigs and other animals at a seminar in order to give medical personnel experience in treating battlefield injuries. A preliminary request for permission had been previously rejected last May. Now, a follow-up attempt to get permission has also been denied.


Schweine sollen nicht für US-Armee bluten

Die US-Armee ist erneut mit dem Versuch gescheitert, auf dem Truppenübungsplatz im ostbayerischen Grafenwöhr Experimente mit lebenden Tieren zu machen.

Die Regierung der Oberpfalz in Regensburg lehnte einen entsprechenden Antrag ab. Die Versuche seinen «ethisch nicht vertretbar», sagte ein Sprecher der Behörde am Freitag der Nachrichtenagentur dpa.

Bei Sanitätsseminaren sollten narkotisierte Schweine oder andere Tiere schwer verletzt werden, um die Versorgung von Kriegsverwundeten üben zu können. Ein erster Antrag dazu war im Mai zurückgezogen worden, jetzt wurde zum zweiten Mal ein Folgeantrag abgewiesen.
