Is this even ethical? Even though it seems crazy, I imagine if I needed and organ like a kidney or liver to live, I would probably volunteer for one of these pig organs.

I think humans should stop thinking that they are superior beings on earth and they can do whatever they want to do to animals. Why do these people have to use animals to develop human organs in animals, just to love longer? This is insane.
