UW-Madison researchers have received clearance to move ahead with decompression testing on sheep despite the fact that it is illegal under state law, due to a waiver. This practice, which involves torture and extreme cruelty by any definition, is being done to improve submarine escapes and rescue operations for people. Notably, decompression tests were done on concentration camp victims by the Nazi's during WWII.
