Chinese scientists experiment with remote control of animals

Chinese scientists said they have succeeded in an experiment to remotely control the flight of a pigeon with electronic technology.


Scientists with the Robot Engineering Technology Research Center of east China's Shandong University of Science and Technology say they implanted micro electrodes in the brain of a pigeon so they can command it to fly right or left or up or down.

Scientists: I'm sorry, we don't play God here.
Homer: That's ridiculous! You do nothing but play God, and I think your octoparrot would agree!
Octoparrot: Awk! Polly shouldn't be!

Until the Chinese have dogs named Alex who can fetch beer from the fridge, I'm not worried.
