The transparent frogs can also reproduce, with their offspring inheriting their parents' traits, but their grandchildren die shortly after birth.

"As they have two sets of recessive genes, something wrong must kick in and kill them," Sumida said.
I am not an animal activist but I think is alarming to see the lack of compassion some scientists have for animals, specially when they pain and disease is involved. I mean "something wrong must be kicking in and killing them", wtf?, what an arsehole, these animals are alive and can feel, were is their sense of responsibility?.

Sorry about the little rant, but I've always had cats, dogs, and all sorts of rescued animals, I don't think people realize how capable of suffering animals are.

Oh, and I think we starting to cross the line with genetics, it looks to me that they are doing things just because they can, not because they need to.
