Title

Alcoholic Dogs Had more Feeble and Defective Puppies.

Subject

This poster compares dogs fed alcohol to a control group, claiming the alcohol exposed group had more deformed offspring. It relies on pseudoscience by unethically applying animal studies to pregnant women while obscuring weak data and clear bias. By exaggerating alcohol’s harms without credible evidence, it pushes a prohibitionist agenda rather than scientific truth.

Description

In this poster it shows a graph of dogs that were feed alcohol compared to dogs that did not. The dogs that were given alcohol only 17% of their puppies survived compared to dogs that did not drink 90% of their puppies lived.
