Today scientists around the world are regularly creating bizarre cross-species creatures. Once upon a time scientists actually respected nature and protected certain boundaries, but now recent advances in the field of genetic modification have opened doors that scientists are only all too eager to rush through and try to exploit.
For example, scientists have now created a cat that glows in the dark.
Really.
A genetically modified cat named Mr. Green Genes recently became the very first fluorescent cat in the United States.
Once these hit the market, you will never have to turn on the lights to find your cat.
But seriously, this is very, very disturbing.
But this was not the first time this type of tampering with cats was done. Some South Korean researchers had previously created a cat that glows red under ultraviolet light.
Now why would scientists be so cruel as to do that to cats?
Well, because they can.
But if you think fluorescent cats are strange, just wait until you hear about the next bizarre creature we are going to (Read More....)
One of the major environmental problems that we face today is that scientists think that just because they CAN do something that they should go ahead and do it.
