Description

Text reads 'Chinese scientists genetically modify cows to produce breast milk. News'. A Chinese scientist looks at his genetically-modified cow which sports human female breasts between its front legs in place of an udder between its back legs and he says 'It came to me in a dream' Context - Chinese scientists have announced that they have modified cows to produce milk similar to human breastmilk. The researchers claim that they've introduced human genes to a herd of 300 cows which have caused the cows' milk to have human-like characteristics. The research, apparently backed by a major biotechnology company, is expected to prompt a mass production of this "breastmilk" that could be sold in supermarkets to actually replace infant formula. The scientists say it will be at least ten years before this cow-produced breastmilk will reach grocery stores. (Green Energy News 5 April 2011)
