Default NZ makes Allergy Free Milk from a GE Cloned Cow

http://www.stuff.co.nz/business/farm...ilk-on-the-way

Article in Stuff.co.nz

Is it me or does this go directly against the whole NO GM or GE products in NZ?

"She has a mysterious missing tail that AgResearch says it is investigating.

It expects to have an answer in a couple of weeks, but does not believe at this stage the lack of a tail is linked to genetic modification."

WTF springs to mind.

Whilst I agree there is a big market potential for hypo allergenic milk, it goes against the grain IMO.

I feel the same. Sometimes we muck about with nature too much.

Worth considering that the peeps who:

Introduced the Red Squirrel to the UK
Introduced rabbits to Oz
Introduced X species to Y place

...ALL thought they fully understood the consequences and were working with state-of-the-art eco-knowledge at that time. These peeps need to understand that our descendants will laugh at our "knowledge" as we can laugh at the pitiful level of knowledge our forebears had when making these cr@p decisions...

But who introduced the muppets?

I blame globalisation.
