More and more things like this will be happening,
Especially now that we can physically view the genome.
Say… Fifty years ago, we might have just called it a deformed Leopard, and moved on with our lives.
Hell, maybe we already did, and this was just the first time someone connected the dots.
Looks like someone also posted a bbc article about it about 5 hours before me. No real discussion there though.
