And you don't understand why people would be freaking out more over that than a cow?

The Predecessor
-----
You have decided to volunteer to test a new serum. Depending on stimulus, the serum can cause all sorts of teratomorphisms to the human frame...however, the machine which tries to control the stimuli has gone a little...haywire.
You get one random mutation per turn. This can be good or bad.
-----
You wake up, in a bit of pain and a lot of confusion. Looking around, you see several others doing the same, as well as a few frightened-looking technicians. What will you do?
Well, since DH said it was dead......it's safe to say I can make one.

Said milkable horrors are not scary beyond belief! They are indeed very lovable!

He never said bringing in milk would fail! Milkable Underground fortress digging cows with humps and wings; which also spray acid!
2. I know. However, water isn't milk, so I'm not sure what you mean.
3. Has it occurred to you that the proposed beast would be utterly terrifying?
I'll have to research to see if you can water crops with milk.It includes good amounts of water, so why not?

What's your color of choice, guys?I posted my suggestion a while back. For just a simple color, how about a dark green?

« on: March 24, 2013, 06:05:31 pm »1. Camels store FAT, which is neither easily removable nor terribly hydrating.Cows have a couple of benefits: They (semi)naturally produce lots of milk, for instance, and are pretty common. Using a cow to produce large quantities of milk would likely be more efficient and therefore either cheaper or more effective than using ants or camels (especially ants).Well I wanted that "storage ability" from camels. If those cows move quickly for long distances I'm okay with them.
Camels have no redeeming attributes past mammary glands, and they don't live so well outside of deserts.
2. Camels aren't exactly racehorses either...
3. I suggested modifying cattle, which should be much more cost-efficient; although, now that I think of it, cows do have several advantages over camels.
Ants build giant underground fortresses, and naturally dig towards water;even if it is meters underground. Human sized ants would be able to dig for miles to find aquifers. Milk hearing ants would be able to store said water to feed our people.They're also absurdly small and, let's face it, they've terrible PR.
they are also rich in protein.
And didn't the GM say that just bringing in water would also fail?

Why not try that milked animal idea? Maybe just alter some cows to be black as sable and produce lots of milk.
