      I do all, as you can tell by the information in my profile.

      I use dead pigs, sourced from the abattoir, to use as human proxies. If I didnt bury them though, they would be used as sausages so they werent killed for my experiment.

      Hello Faye, Tomtom, Jackalope and Jenny,

      No, not at all. However, in conducting social research for my masters thesis, into an aspect of driver psychology, yes. I interviewed many humans!

      Hi

      I only use flies; I collect a few from the wild and breed colonies of hundreds from these. I use pig or ox liver from the butchers to feed the larvae on. Thats it!
