Title: Koreans honor dead lab animals (who knows -- they may return)
Language of title: English
Author/Creator: H. W. Choi

Description: Laboratory researchers in Korea hold a ceremony to honor animals used in experiments over a ten month period. The practice of honoring the passed animals is part of the Buddhist culture and helps ease the scientists minds, although the article mentions that the ceremony is also connected to older shamanic beliefs about animal spirits.
