Craziest experiment on animals in the world

Researchers recently South Korea (ROK), insert a gene into the DNA that makes Beagle dog can turn green under ultraviolet light.

These experiments are more likely to exercise for gene manipulation. These experiments tend to be a more practical way for gene therapy. It becomes the latest example in a long history and ethical controversies invaluable medical applications for humans. Here are some of the history of science a la Frankenstein that has ever happened in the world.

TWO-HEADED DOG
 
 In 1950, Soviet scientist named Vladimir Demikhov pioneered the field of organ transplantation using dogs. In one famous experiment, he made a two-headed dog that became the most astonishing creatures ever made man.

According to the Time Magazine article, 1955, Demikhov eliminate most small dog's body and grafted the head and front legs on the adult dog's neck. Adult canine cardiac pump enough blood for both heads of this.

When both conscious dogs after surgery, the puppy's head woke up and yawned. While the head of an adult dog confused and initially tried to shake his head. Marvelous, the dogs still have 'personality' of each maing. Unfortunately, this experiment was not a success. After six days together, the dogs died.


RAT EAR

 A combined ear with the back of the mice in the laboratory. The ear itself is shaped network structures that grow human cartilage cell seeding in biodegradable mold.

Mice were officially known as the Vacanti got its name from surgeon Dr. Charles Vacanti. This doctor and colleagues experiment in 1995 to demonstrate the potential methods of cartilage transplantation in human patients.


LIGER
 Not all experiments on animals bizarre ending. Liger is a descendant of a male lion and a female tiger who met in captivity. It has a weight of 408 kg and a length of 3.6 meters makes a liger the biggest cat on Earth.

ROBOT MONKEY
In 2010, a neurologist from the University of Pittsburgh to teach monkeys to control a robotic arm with his mind. Experts give this monkey two brain implants. These implants which oversees activities in the motor neurons and send the information on a computer that are translated into commands to the robot arm.

As a result, these monkeys can manipulate the arm with his thoughts. Monkey is able to take food, push the button and turn the knob. The results of this experiment could help paralyzed people operate prosthetics with thoughts.


 TURKEY LOVE
 

 In 1960, turkey biologist at Pennsylvania State University found that when placed in a room with a model of a female turkey, males vigorously marry because they will live as one.

Intrigued by this, the researchers then remove one part of the model to determine the minimum stimulus needed to stimulate these birds before losing interest.

Tail, wings and legs removed and males were intoxicated romance ignored. In fact, when there is no female body only the head, males still do not mind and still trying to marry her.

The researchers found, the head fixation associated gobbler their mating style. When turkey Janta up females, females gobbler covered completely, except for the head. Because this is the part they could see, the head is the focus of erotic desire stud.
