Spider Goat, Spider Goat, Does Whatever a Spider Goat Does…

by Brian Alterman on Jan.18, 2012, under News

Researchers at the University of Wyoming needed spider silk for their research.  When they tried to set up spider farms, the spiders, who are very territorial set about killing each other.  Being scientists they decided to try again, this time keeping the spiders separate from each other, wait what?  They didn’t?  Instead they decided to put spider genes into goats who now produce spider web milk?  Scientists claim that other than the extra protein in their milk the goats are completely normal.  The Asylum is currently working a film about the experiments called “Spidergoat Nightmare”.
