This I had never heard of:
"The problem in many of these cases was the rodents, or, maybe more accurately, that researchers had pinned their hopes on them. Mice and rats, the world’s most commonly used laboratory animals—creatures whose many biological similarities to us have enabled massive leaps in the treatment of HIV, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and more—are rather useless in one very specific context: They simply can’t throw up."
@cyrilpedia there was a video circulating on twitter a few years ago of what looked like a rodent gagging. I wish I could find it again for this exact reason!
@cyrilpedia sadly, I doubt I'll ever see it again. Even with search functionality I've got no memory of any keywords or what the thread was about. :(
