Intelligent chimps, deathly stupid/brave mice

TOKYO - Using genetic engineering, scientists at Tokyo University say they have created mice that display no fear of cats.

The specimenes were not on hand, as the researchers were not successful in their attempts to breed cats that don’t love eating fearless mice.


A young chimpanzee has resoundingly outperformed college students in memory tests in an experiment at Kyoto university.

Critics of the study suggested that the researchers didn’t compensate for the years of superior schooling enjoyed by the chimpanzee.

Researchers are excited for the next phase of the experiment, in which they use college students who aren't high.

It remains unclear whether or not chimpanzees are intelligent enough to be really pissed off that we’re still the Earth’s dominant species, and still messing it up huge.
