Genetically-altered Mouse, fearless of Cats

2.6.08

Japanese scientists were able to genetically alter a mouse by removing certain nasal cells to prevent it from distinguishing a cat through it's sense of smell. The result is a mouse fearless of cats. This experiment has led to discovery that a mouse's fear of cats is genetically determined and not learned from birth.
