Okay.
IN A WAY, it's kind of cool, but also kind of sad, because I'm pretty sure that's not too healthy.
But it'd be REALLY awesome to have a glow in the dark dog. xD

The cool thing, to the people who did this, was that they implanted genes into the puppies.

The purpose of this funding of glowing dog help people see dogs in dark. Like I accidentally step on my dog tail at night. Why, because I couldn't see him. (it a true story, but sarcasm all over)
Righty is LAW

It not funny that dog are glowing and they was experiment on. What was funny was why the hell do we need glowing dog because there no point behind it.
It wrong for animal to get experimented on, but it nothing you can do about it unless you want be human to be experimented on first, If they let you be first before animal at that.

wow whats the point of making them green? what is the world gonna get from this. i mean they could of spent more time working on something more important.

Dude, 28 Weeks later was insane!
That is definitely the most realistic Zombie movie I've ever seen.
It's sad that they test this stuff on animals, but Americans do animal testing too!!!
It is probably going to turn out for the worse in the end o-o

Did any of you actually read the report, the fact that they glow is of the least importance. Its all about the fact they put glowing genes into a living animal, that glowing part is cool tho.
And, on the point of animal testing, get over it, it HAS to be done if you want advances in medicine because there not allowed to test on humans.

Maybe the scientists should test it on them self then since they make it

I Doubt They Would, They Won't Do That That's Why There Using Animals From The Looks There Not "Hurting" Them Just Altering Them.

No mexican they are not hurting them... look at it like this amigo: If they did this to... the process itself may not hurt. But what about the genetic implications and maybe the emotional ones... If u were the only human walking around with a face like a flash light do u think u would not be persecuted.. or feel that u did noy quite fit in??

I'm all for it. It's about time we started playing god and seeing the results.
Maybe down the road they will have gene splicing in that episode of Batman Beyond or like the plasmids of Bioshock.
I say we should start implanting the stuff that makes eels electric into people. Real life X-men! lol
Muahahahahahahahahahaha
I love super villain naive dreams of grandeur!
I'm against animals being harmed, but sometimes you have to take a Machiavellian or Sun Tzu stance and sacrifice the few for the many, for the greater good. Besides the way you get your meat from almost any restaurant is horrific, painful, and downright sadistic treatment of animals.

Yes, it would still be funny if they did it to a human. Call me a bad person. I don't care. If there wasn't animal testing, we would never advance in the medical field.

Totally agree with you there, but I go with the old adage-
"The cuter it is, the tastier."
But anyway.....
I'm really starting to get interested in the possibilities of genetic engineering etc.
