Of Pigs, Primates, And Plagues: Xenotransplantation Critique
The thousands of crossspecies experiments (between goats, rats and chickens, rats and hamsters, cats and dogs, pigs and primates) performed since 1906,
http://www.mrmcmed.org/pigs.html

Extractions: There have been some 55 animal-to-human whole organ transplants attempted since 1906. All have proven unsuccessful, resulting in the suffering and death of all patients and donor animals. The thousands of cross-species experiments (between goats, rats and chickens, rats and hamsters, cats and dogs, pigs and primates) performed since 1906, and continuing today, have not provided reliable information about what would happen to human xenograft recipients. Xenotransplantation is a dangerous and unproven technology. 3. Xenotransplantation Is Expensive Xenotransplantation is riskier and promises to be even more expensive than human-to-human transplantation ($250,000 per operation in 1995, not including the hidden costs of breeding, housing, feeding, medicating, testing, transporting, rendering, and disposing of the waste and remains of herds of transgenic animals). Institute of Medicine figures from 1996 reveal that xenotransplant costs for all patients who need organs could reach $20.3 billion. These costs are beyond the means of the majority of Americans and an already overburdened health care system. If ever successful, the technology would, at best, benefit a small minority of patients (100,000) while dramatically driving up health care costs for all.

Chapter 19 Primates
Origin of primates deep in the Cretaceous? National Geographic News, April 18, 2002, article about a new paper. This paper makes me really angry.

Extractions: Primate Info Net from the University of Wisconsin. Primates and color vision Origin of primates deep in the Cretaceous? National Geographic News , April 18, 2002, article about a new paper. This paper makes me really angry. It is lousy science, and should never have been published. It claims that primates evolved deep in the Cretaceous. A new fossil of Carpolestes may shed light on the origin of true primates. National Geographic News, November 21, 2002. The research was published in Science Carpolestes is a plesiadapid, a member of a group that has been identified as belonging to "flying lemurs", Dermoptera, rather than true primates. The authors hang their argument on their analysis that Carpolestes and the other plesiadapids are indeed primates. Prosimians have color vision . It's not yet clear how many times color vision evolved within primates, or how it was modified during primate evolution. I suspect that there is a lot to learn yet by studying the vision of living primates. Nocturnal primates probably can't use much color vision, so there may have been episodes of loss and/or repeated evolution of color vision. African Primates at Home Living lemurs Daubentonia , the prosimian that has an ecology in the woodpecker guild.

Extractions: About Primates Grant Applications Assisting PCI News ... Publications Primate Conservation, Inc., (PCI) is an all volunteer not for profit foundation [501(c)(3)] dedicated to studying, preserving and maintaining the habitats of the least known and most endangered primates in the world. Over 100 species, approaching half of all primates, are threatened or endangered. The tropical forests where most primates live are disappearing at an alarming rate. Jane Goodall and others who have done field studies of primates in their natural habitat have shown that dedicated individuals are one of the keys to successful conservation. PCI provides grants to support the next generation of researchers and conservationists in the field. These grantees research the needs of species, focusing the attention of local people and the world. In many cases they are the endangered primates only defense against hunters and loggers.
