Its easy, just click on this link and then click on "take action". I did it..... please, please, please, be their voice.

| I just sent a letter as well. I truly don't know how any animal lover (or decent human being, heh) can be okay with this when there ARE other options. This reminds me of the episode of Grey's Anatomy with the pigs.

| thank you for posting this. Attached is a copy of my email: I strongly encourage you to end the use of poor defenseless animals in your ATLS course. I am ACLS certified nurse and we do not use humans in our teaching and certifications. We use a mannequin and we learn just fine-there is not need to use humans. As an animal lover I beg you to stop this practice. jaumack rn, cwocn
