Abstract
Eight common worries concerning the development and use of transgenic animals are formulated. These worries are assessed by two ethical crit eria. It is argued that one of the worries, animal welfare, is ethical ly significant, whereas the rest are either baseless or tum out really to be about animal welfare.
