These are conscious beings. Imagine being trapped in a lab where the next time you wake up you might not have full motor function?
That's heartbreaking. Imagine being trapped in a experimentation room with no escape. Everday's just hell.

They do not have consciousness based on what we currently know, and there's very little evidence that they do based on what experiments we are able to conduct. I'm not saying they unequivocally don't, all I'm saying is as we currently understand the term they do not.
