Actually, it’s more like, Dr. Frankenstein cocks an eyebrow and asks, “dude, really?”
To be fair, these people are starting with living creatures, not trying to jolt to life something made of spare parts.
That just means we got the wrong archetype.
It’s not quite Doctor Moreau, either, but he’s closer.
Good point. I liked both of your replies.

Next step, identify the blood factors, then figure how to synthesize them without needing a young donor.
I’m not sure I’d want a mouse sewn to me. They wiggle a lot.
And it would probably take quite a lot of mice to provide enough of the key blood factors, given the size disparity, so you’d have mice stitched all over you like little tumors.
I just don’t see PETA approving such treatments.
Beat me to it, George. 😉
Just shows that the US is continuing on track to have the healthiest, longest lived mice in the world. Mice that ROAR.
I think I’ll wait and see how this turns out. With a glass of Pinot Gran Fenwick in hand, perhaps.
