Gene-edited cattle have a major screwup in their DNA

Lol. Have they not seen the Fly movies?

[DannyTN]

It may be scary that my mind instantly thought of the movie “The Fly” and hypothesized a cow fly hybrid.

But someone else had already produced the art!

[dhs12345]

Bacteria, apparently.

So they created a mutant cow that has genes that make it resistant to antibiotics.

The Climate Change crowd who want us all to stop eating beef would likely approve.

[Veto!]

Frankenbeef for sure.

I have steak once a week. Always buy grassfed beef from. my wonderful butcher who gets it from ranchers in Oregon and Montana. I really don’t even want feedlot beef because feedlots are filthy, with cattle standing around up to their knees in poop.

Somebody really screwed up.

That is why additional checks are needed.

There are those who say I look like that now, so no great loss.😁

My EX Wife now lives in Florida, re-married and now identifies as a Honey Badger... swing wide at Ft Lauderdale and you could possibly avoid her (still might hear her, that just means you didn’t swing out wide enough)

I’d hate to come down with bacterial endotoxin poisoning after chowing down on a big ribeye.

I doubt if a cow’s biochemistry matches E. coli’s close enough to do that, but who knows?

What other unexpected malignancies remain hidden in GMO products?

[I want the USA back]

According to Darwinism, the genes take care of themselves through natural selection. Some genes die out, and others propagate. Toying with genes is not natural selection. Will this tampering result in long term harm to the species?

I found a great butcher here that I get my meats from, I just don’t trust supermarket meat anymore.

Sure we are.

We just aren't smart enough to win at playing God...

[null and void]

‘win’ should be ‘succeed’

When scientists are clever enough to create their own matter, they should feel free to manipulate it freely.

Until then, leave God’s matter alone.

Oh sorry. I thought it was your creation :)

If you can think of it, there’s a good chance someone has already uploaded an image somewhere.
