Well, not necessarily. After all, studies have been done in which chimps and gorillas have been taught sign language. All we need is for them to be able to "volunteer" and prove that they are competent to do so (by virtue of the language they were taught) and then they can be used for research just like human volunteers.

In theory.

Smile! The world could use another happy person.
