I watched a documentary last night which
to say the very least, shocked me. It was
how far genetic engineering has come in the last decade. For example, have you heart of spider goats? yes it does sound odd. The genes for producing the protein to make silk in spiders has been found and spliced into goats. The milk produced by the goats contains lots of the protein so the silk can be produced in large quantities. Why? well the silk is the strongest thing in nature or made by humans.
