A Blog designed for discussion of topics related to, but not limited to, Circus, Zoos, Animal Training, and Animal Welfare/Husbandry. Sometimes opening up the dialog is the best starting point of all. And if for nothing else when people who agree and don't agree, get together and start discussing it, it will open up a lot of peoples minds. Debate and discussion even amongst themselves opens a window where there wasn't one before.

well looks like they have developed their own Frankenstein. Terrible.
Dianne,
As they achieved it through natural selection/controlled breeding, I find it a bit more acceptable then it it had been created artificially with gene splitting or some other means. It is more steaks after all.

Freakish, but fasinating -- classical selective breeding -- not unlike starting with early canine breed like the Alaskan Malamute -- one of the 14 "ancient breeds" -- and ending up with a Chihuahua. Breeding strictly for muscle mass over dozens of generations is interesting because unlike creating a white tiger line from aberrant animals with a recessive gene, for many successive crosses these muscle mass animals still fell within the "normal" range.
Ben,
I am having a hard time following what you are defining as "normal."

creepy and weird...is humanity right around the corner?
