Fluorescent green pig
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fluorescent green pigs were first bred by a group of researchers led by Prof. Wu Shinn-Chih at the Department of Animal Science and Technology at National Taiwan University, announcing the results of the experiment in January 2006.
The transgenic pigs were created by adding DNA from fluorescent jellyfish to pig embryos which were then implanted. The pigs glow green in the dark, and have clearly green-tinged skin and eyes in daylight.
