Support I'm not really sure about this one, the other featured pictures about animals are all more or less alive and nice to look at, but this is a really interesting view of the organs and inner structure of a rat. startaq 00:45, August 15, 2005 (UTC)
Oppose Unfortunetaly not a great pic. I'm missing the feet of the rat. I would also crop the gray surrounding (perhaps even copy some of the bottom of the pod onto it. If you want to show this object make sure that nothing else distracts the observer Andreas Tille06:56, 15 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I like when a photo is a challenge to what a featured pic is. The subject is controversial and I like the idea of making an interesting and nice photo of it, but unfortunately the photo itself is not very good - I agree with Andres Tilles comments.

Oppose could have been better if seen from above. Could be elected but should be put with a disclaimer or/and inside a drop-down box to avoid shocking some people. However, could serve as a starting point to make a great vector picture of organs which would be less disturbing. Dake00:15, 16 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Unfortunately the composition isn't very good, but I don't think there is anything wrong with pictures like this. -- ADSR658117:42, 19 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Good, educational, quality picture. What is considered to be so shocking here? Haven't you seen a cut rat before? If you are offended by this, can you cut a rat in a non-shocking way and take a picture to replace this one? Definitely support.—Ezhiki14:42, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Normally I make a point of never voting to oppose, but in this case I will – expressly to discourage anybody from taking up Ezhiki's suggestion and cutting up more rats in 'less shocking' ways. It's my duty; I'm a vegetarian. :-) QuartierLatin196803:46, 27 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
