Japan "Crossing Whales With Cows"

Metro: Japanese 'crossing whales with cows'
The Japanese have carried out 'bizarre' tests to cross whales with cows, it was claimed yesterday. A catalogue of 'very strange' tests – including attempts to produce test-tube calves – were conducted in a bid to justify Japan's slaughter of hundreds of whales each year 'for research', campaigners said. They also accused the government scientists of injecting minke whale sperm into cow eggs and implanting minke cells into cow and pig cells. Australian environment minister Peter Garrett said: 'I challenge anyone to look at this research and say it's necessary.' The claims were made by Australian delegates in London for an International Whaling Commission meeting. They did not present their findings but said they unearthed the tests while reviewing papers by Japan's Institute for Cetacean Research. Mark Simmonds, of Britain's Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society, said: 'Many of these papers are downright weird. We all know it is just thin veneer for a commercial hunt'.

Is this an attempt to recreate the average American woman on Japanese soil?

As a non-Aussie, I wasn't sure why the name Peter Garrett was familiar at first.
Then, suddenly, my Wham "Choose Life" shirt exploded into flames, and I saw George Michael beckoning me towards the bathroom, Frankie said "Relax", and I wondered, "How can we sleep when our beds are burning?"



All us 'mericans could muster is Jesse the Body.

The time has come...

He seems to have gone mostly quite since the election.

90% of pollies in Australia were in the media in some form or another prior, mostly journalism.

On the topic though, it honestly doesn't suprise me. Japan certainly takes the cake for cookee ideas.
There was probably some alternative motive to it though, other then to prove their point about hunting whales, and that they're similar to cows.

Probably wanted to work on a method to create whale sized cows so they no longer had to import it from overseas.
Or maybe Cow sized whales to for Marie to carry in her hand bag.

Garrett should come on over and kick some inviable cross-hybridization ass, as I recall he's at least 6'6".
