Was the study necessary? The Crabs suffer.

What I am going to propose can generate quite a lot of controversy and be disconcerting, and it can also be seen from many angles and we will have to give our opinion because this can be transformed into laws and first of all you do not have to be a scientist or do scientific research to know that animals suffer. , all. In research published on November 26, researchers from the University of Gothenburg in Sweden published research demonstrating for the first time that painful stimuli reach the brain of sea crabs, providing evidence that the crustaceans suffer pain and There they are experimenting with them to see how they suffer pain with a Crab. They literally say that “in the search for greater well-being for the animals that humans kill for food,” researchers at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden have chosen to focus on decapod crustaceans, which include shrimp, lobsters, crabs and River crabs too, we catch these animals, we eat them and they are delights when it comes to eating them, but it turns out that according to researchers "if we want to continue eating them we have to find less painful ways to kill them." to mollusks, because now we have scientific evidence that they experience pain and react to it” are statements by Lynne Sneddon, researcher at the University of Gothenburg.

This would support some trends that I have seen in many places and especially in the United Kingdom against shellfish that are cooked alive and specifically this researcher was dealing precisely with the issue of shellfish that are cooked alive and also those that are cut while still alive in the United States. Joined. This is a research topic, it is a research from the University of Gothenburg but based on it it can end up being transformed into some type of regulation or law, I don't know what you think on the subject, I have to specify that these animals that have been mentioned before, crabs, lobsters, etc., their natural way of dying is being beaten, chewed and destroyed alive by their predators, such as otters, seagulls and a lot of animals that dedicate themselves to eating these little crabs and their relatives. It is a controversial topic anyway, what I ask of you is that no one tells the Swedes what happens to the octopuses when a paella is made.
