Genetically engineered super mouse stuns scientists
SuperMouse!
"They are metabolically similar to Lance Armstrong biking up the Pyrenees."
~ Richard W. Hanson, Professor of Biochemistry at Case Western Reserve
The mouse can run up to six kilometres at a speed of 20 metres per minute for five hours or more without stopping, British newspaper The Independent reports. [...] The engineered mouse also lives longer, has more sex and can breed well into old age, and eats more without getting fat, the paper reports. [...] But he said the supermouse was “very aggressive” and scientists weren't yet sure why.
