#Chinese Scientists Modify Cows to Produce Human Breast Milk Isnt it hard for the babies to suck off the cow udders?
Chinese scientists have modified genetically dairy cows to produce human breast milk, and hope to be selling it in supermarkets within three years#The milk produced by the transgenic cows is identical to the human variety
and has the same immune-boosting and antibacterial qualities as breast milk, scientists at Chinas Agricultural University in Beijing say.
The transgenic herd of 300 was bred by inserting human genes into cloned cow embryos which were implanted then into surrogate cows.
The milk is still undergoing safety tests but with government permission it will be sold to consumers as a more nutritious dairy drink than cows milk.

#Genetically Modified Cows in China to Produce â Humanâ##Milk Scientists have created successfully a herd of more than 200 cows that is capable of producing milk that contains the characteristics of human milk.
Researchers in China have modified genetically some 200 cows so that the milk they produce is similar to human milk.
The scientists have created successfully a herd of more than 200 cows that is capable of producing milk that contains the characteristics of human milk.
The milk tastes stronger than cow or goat milk. Within ten years, people will be able to pick up these human milklike products at the supermarket#the healthy protein contained in human milk will be affordable for ordinary consumers.
now someone really thought it was a good idea to genetically modify the cows to produce a substance similar to something that humans already produce naturally.

#Rare Miniature â Panda Cowâ##Born Rare panda cow A rare miniature cow with markings similar to a panda was born on a farm in northern Colorado.
The male calf named Ben was born Friday morning, according to The (Loveland) Reporter-Heralrd. His mother is a Lowline Angus cow while his father,
Donovan, is a panda bull on the farm. Farmer Chris Jessen raises miniature cattle and also owns a miniature kangaroo on his hobby farm.
The miniature panda cow is the result of genetic manipulation. A white belt encircles the animals midsection
and the cow has a white face with black ovals around the eyes, giving it a panda-like appearance.
The mini-cattle are bred solely as pets. Jessen says panda calves can sell for $30, 000.

#Cow collar texts ranchers when animals are sick or in heat Even cows can benefit from having a mobile device.

Shortly thereafter the first genetically identical cows chickens, and sheep were produced. What made Dolly a sensation,
scientist have used SCNT to clone other mammals including cat, dog, deer, horse, mule, ox, rabbit and rat.
Repeatedly cloning cattle and cats went no further than the third generation. Frustrated scientists attempted to find out why successive cloning was progressively problematic.
the technique opens up the possibility of cloning highly-valued animals such as prized cattle or racehorses,
cows that produced humanized milk, evenolympic horses. Cloning remains a young science and scientists no doubt have a long list of organisms they would like to clone.
when scientists cloned a bucardo, an Iberian wild goat, that had gone extinct three years earlier, by inserting its DNA
(which they got from frozen bucardo skin) into the eggs of an existing goat. The cloned bucardo was born,
Three Possible Techniques Around the same time as the attempted revival of the bucardo in 2003, Robert Lanza, Chief Scientific Officer at Advanced Cell Technology, took tissue from a Javan banteng (not yet extinct),
and inserted it into an egg cell of a closely related cow. The cow gave birth to the exotic banteng,
which is still alive and thriving. Currently there are three semi-successful techniques being experimented with for de-extinction. 1.)Selective back-breeding of existing descendants to recreate a primordial ancestor is being used for the revival of the European Aurochs,
among others. 2.)Cloning with cells from cryopreserved tissue of a recently extinct animal can generate viable eggs.

a relatively straightforward technological innovation#GPS-equipped free-range cows that can be nudged back within virtual bounds by ear-mounted stimulus-delivery devices#has implications that could profoundly reshape our relationships with domesticated animals,
Anderson s directional virtual fencing is augmented nothing less than reality for cattle, a bovine New Aesthetic:
If gathering cows on horseback gave rise to the cowboy narratives of the West, we might ask in this context,
whether it s elephants in Africa or Hereford cows in Las Cruces, New mexico. You will have seen this,
you might have your cows way over on the western perimeter of your land, while the rainfall takes place along the other Edge in two weeks,
Which means your cows are all in the wrong place. It s a lose-lose, rather than a win-win.
and program the polygon that contains your cows to move spatially and temporally over the landscape to this#oebetter location.#
and manpower to gather your cows, you would simply move the virtual fence. It s like those join-the-dots coloring books#you end up with a bunch of coordinates that you connect to build a fence.
and you program cows to move on your ranch in Montana, and you don t have anybody out on the ground in Montana monitoring
and say,#oethe data saying that this number of cows should be in this polygon for this many days are accurate##or not.
How do you interface with the cow in order to stimulate the behavior that you want? Anderson:
what we know about cow hearing. Cows and humans are similar, but not identical. These cues were developed to fit the animal that we are trying to manage.
Now, if we go back to me as the example, I m very stubborn. I need a little higher level of irritation to change my behavior.
so we cut it right down for our version As the cow moves toward the virtual fence perimeter,
As the cow approaches a virtual fence boundary, we send the cues on the acute side,
If we tried to move the cow by cuing the obtuse side, she would have had to move deeper into the irritation gradient before being able to exit it.

#I m curious as to how dynamic virtual fencing affects how cows perceive the landscape. Anderson:
cattle would still not cross the line where it had been located. So this could indeed be an issue with virtual fencing,
Part of the reason is that cows want to eat, so if the polygon that contains the animals is programmed to move toward good forage,
the cows will follow. It s almost like a moving feed bunk, if you will. I m sure that, in time#I would almost bet money on this#that
One day when I was out manually gathering my cows on an ATV I put a voice-activated recorder in my pocket
