Click the 'about me' above to find out more about me. I basically blog about science, environmentalism, SJ, and the Mountain Goats. Feel free to ask me questions.

This is what a genetically modified organism, or GMO, looks like. These so-called-chickens have been modified so that they do not grow feathers.“The birds, created at the Hebrew University in Israel, will not need to be plucked, saving money in processing plants”

This is just… who on earth thinks it’s ok for humans to do this to another species?! 

Bitches be cray and I hate ‘em.

Really?

this just reminds me of Oryx & Crake. Next thing we know they’ll be growing chickens that regenerate their breasts after you cut them off, allowing them to continuously provide genetically modified chicken.
CHICKIE NOBZ 4 LIFE
Also, in the interest of real science, these chickens were actually just bred to be featherless, like they do with many domesticated plants & animals. They aren’t genetically modified in the sense that their genes have been fucked w/ in the lab. Also, this happened like 10 years ago. GOOD JOB INTERNET.
