And that is just the start. Scientists believe Night Pearl bio-fish represent the shape of pets to come. Our household animals will come with extra genes that will stop them shedding fur or triggering allergic reactions. And when one dies, its owner will simply clone it.

Arrrrgggghhhhh that means that the rich ladies's 'little darlings' will keep coming back, no matter how many times we run them over .....


nice sig Simmo:thumbs:

Cloning wouldnt have the efect that people want. It wouldnt be the same animal, it wouldnt even look the same. Unless it was of one colour. But if it had patches of colour on it, it would turn out different.

cloning is the same as asexual reproduction.... they are exact copies of the original....

Not cloning as it is. It would not turn out the same, there are still random factors in it.


Sigh. I wish i could feature in someones sig. ;(
