Russian domesticated red fox project update
An article appearing today on the BBC website has a recap of the
Russian fox domesication project and a few bits of information I was previously unaware of such as: "The study of genetics had been essentially banned in the USSR, as the country's dictator Joseph Stalin sought to discredit the genetic principles set out by Gregor Mendel. Stalin's death in 1953 gave scientists more freedom, but in the early years Belyaev nevertheless worked under the cover that he was breeding foxes to make better fur coats." http://www.bbc.com/earth/story/20160...s-in-the-world -- Bob The joint that time is out of www.kanyak.com |
