How do medical professionals justify their involvement with live tissue training?

There is a predominant consequentialist thinking regarding the use of live animals, with evidence that the 3Rs principles are being considered, if not explicitly, as a restriction on the use of animals for LTT and also partly to justify or defend medical professionals' involvement. We suggest that professional identity is likely to have a role in forming these justificatory arguments, but personal views about the moral standing of animals and notions of speciesism could also influence decisions about being involved in LTT.
