Is nothing sacred? Just about everything,be it food or fowl,is genetically manipulated these days,and most of it is causing problems all the way from food allergies to digestion. It is understandable how it got started with scientists trying to solve the problem of growing more food for more people in less area,but the latest one I heard about doesn't seem to serve any purpose at all...unless of course they are trying to make sheep easier to find in the dark to prevent their predators from hunger? Researchers used a gene that produces a green fluorescent protein in jellyfish to make glow in the dark sheep. Again,why? Maybe there is a need for glow in the dark wool that I am unaware of...or if the meat also glows you could douse the lights at your next barbecue save power and eat by the glow of the lamb. It seems like there must be some better way to use their education that making things that don't serve a purpose,but maybe I am missing something?
