I'll Be Back - Genetically Modified Terminator Trout Have 20% More Muscle
Monday, March 15, 2010 at 12:02AM Just think of the possibilities when these bad boys escape the fish farm.
Terry Bradley, an aquaculture professor at the University of Rhode Island, has been researching how to counteract the effects of a protein called myostatin, which slows muscle growth. At last he's discovered how to block the production of myostatin in fish, resulting in this bulbous creature you see in the video above. Bradley's transgenic trout tend to grow 15-20% more muscle than average trout.

Makes me want to puke for a bunch of reasons. Scary
I just threw up in my cereal.
Seems like a good idea to me.
Look at the way he smiles when he says "six pack abs". Creepy.
wrong in so many ways
WRONG. I hope eats those things, and enjoys the growth of his third ball.

F U C K T H A T !
It reminds me of that episode of Southpark episode where Stan goes to the PETA camp and that Half Human half Ostrich wretched hybrid baby is begging "kiiiiilllll meeeeee...."
I hope he loses his funding. Those things are effed
As if triploid fish weren't horrifying enough this A-hole comes up with these monstrosities..............
disgusting
That is so horrific, genetic engineering on trout to replace salmon/seafood? Talk about a nut job! Six pack abs on trout. WOW!
Just what the world needs.... As if we don't have enough problems with cancer and other weird diseases, this guy wants us to eat even more genectically engineered food. It is about time go organic....
salmon farming SH!THE@D. maybe they can destroy some wild stocks. he needs to inject himself!!!!
That guys a fucking idiot man, just the stuff we don't need !!
so gross, that is the most disgusting looking trout I have ever laid eyes on
Leave it to SCIENCE, they know best!!!
I want a six pack and not have to work for it does myostatin work on people. Then again maybe the sixpack abs wont balance out the mongoloid face. forget I ever mentioned it.
God help us! Were all gonna DIE!! LOL
Friends don't let friends eat farmed fish......alien fish
IDIOT!!!
Hopefully this guy gets reincarnated as a "special trout." That was some mad scientist effed up shite right there.
