Ooh, Can They Make Me A Blue Cat Next?
-
Scientists in Hawaii and Turkey have collaborated to use genetic modification to produce fluorescent green rabbits. Why? Actually, there's a reason: it proves that they can take a gene that wasn't in an animal and plant it there, which means they can transplant genes, and that may lead to things like cheaper medicine (like, say, the clotting factor stuff they give to hemophiliacs that come from animals who have the right enzymes, which they can make more plentiful by transplanting that gene into larger animals). Plus, glowing green rabbits. Cool. (KITV/Honolulu)
