      No, I don’t test on animals. everything I do is computational!

      Nope. As far as I know, there is no scientific testing on wild animals. Any science I know of on wild animals is purely by observation.

      If working on little worms generally found in soil counts, then yes.

      No, definitely not! Any use of animals in science has to be done in a really controlled way (keeping their temperature, diet etc constant, and keeping them free of any disease). To get good data you need to keep all variables constant – wild animals are too full of disease.
