熒光豬

說實在的，看到這樣的新聞照片，有點不知所措。夜裏會發光的豬？

＂Taiwan is not claiming a world first. Others have bred partially fluorescent pigs before; but the researchers insist the three pigs they have produced are better. They are the only ones that are green from the inside out. Even their heart and internal organs are green, the researchers say.＂

據說他們還要繼續繁殖這種熒光豬。讓牠們跟正常的豬隻交配。雖然這個基因改造的工程主要的目的似乎是為了培養「熒光細胞」以做為人類醫學研究之用，但是看到這個從心臟到血管都是熒光綠的豬，不禁還是覺得頗為毛骨聳然。
