China recently created a new recipe for more disaster. As if their communist government wasn't enough the engineering of a super-dog has been concocted. This being said their final goal would be to create a super-human. So, ask yourself, what in the world would you need a super-dog or a super-human?
The Chinese say super-dogs could potentially be deployed to" frontline service to assist police officers."
Dr Lai Liangxue, researcher at Guangzhou institute of biological medicine and health, said, "dogs are one of the hardest animals to clone, with only South Korea thought to have successfully created a clone in the past."
But some have criticised the experiments, citing ethical concerns.
David King, who is director of Human Genetics Alert says “This is the way its likely to proceed if the law is changed, first of all they will use it for medical purposes, most likely to treat a genetic condition.
“In terms of genetic engineering we will be seeing this more and more.”
There are also fears that, as well as medical, tinkering with genetics could also lead to a rise in designer or novelty pets.
Sick. Here is a short video of a human frog.
