I love that CERN has such a strong bond with their animals. They are even monitoring the quantum entanglements of their sheep: https://home.cern/news/news/cern/cern-scientists-find-eviden...

And yet, not everything is so pretty at CERN.

Just consider their Large Hamster Collider! It’s a travesty, and last I head, they were colliding billions of hamster per second. You also got to ask what they do with the resulting elephants and whatnot coming out of those relativistic collisions.

I remember when Outpost.com's initial gerbil collision tests led to public outcry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZIwetqq3H8
