Development of transgenic farm animals will allow more flexibility in direct genetic manipulation of livestock. Gene transfer is a relatively rapid way of altering the genome of domestic livestock.

A Texas-based startup believes we need better pets and plans to genetically modify animals, starting with glow-in-the-dark ...

Risks of genetic engineering: Transfer of the selected ... as fewer weed species survive as a food and shelter source for animals ...

Not limited by the slaughter of animals. Large quantities can be made quickly. No risk of transferring infections. More effective at treating diabetes as animal insulin is different to human insulin.

Researchers analyzed genetic material gathered from the Chinese market where the first outbreak was detected and found that the most likely animals were racoon dogs, civet cats and bamboo rats.

A new startup called the Los Angeles Project aims to speed up that process with genetic engineering to make glow ... of our moral prerogative to level up animals,” she says.
