The animal world is always full of interesting and bizarre stories. Our old guy, Cat, is no exception. Today, let’s take a look at 5 strange and fascinating stories.
A black cat in Russia forced the brown bear to retreat
Recently, several Russians went out to camp in the forest camp and suddenly found a brown bear walking towards them swaggeringly, probably attracted by the aroma of barbecue.
As soon as they took out their guns to prepare for defense, they found that the cat Vasily suddenly rushed out, arched his back, raised his hair, stood fiercely in front of the brown bear, and kept intimidating the brown bear. The brown bear was a little panicked and acted to attack Vasily, but Vasily always maintained a terrorism posture. A few minutes later, the brown bear became weak and quickly left the camp. The cat owner was worried and proud, and it seemed that Vasily could have a sumptuous lunch.
This incident was mainly because the brown bear had never seen a cat. It was not sure what harm this "unknown creature" would cause to it. After several attacks, the black cat was not timid, which made the brown bear feel tempted to retreat.
Russian cats are indeed not ordinary.
Female Radio
There is a magic cat-specific TV station in Arizona, USA, and owner Noel Rosen has operated this TV station for 9 years. The TV station's manager is Noel Rosen's pet cat Isis, and the assistant manager and program director are all cats.
The TV station provides internet radio and cable services to play various cat-related videos, as well as music that Noel Rosen claims to be "feline certified" with music styles ranging from RNB to jazz. Additionally, the station offers interviews with a variety of veterinarians and pet owners. In 2007, scientists from Gyeongsang National University in South Korea conducted an experiment of unknown significance.
They extracted skin cells from an Angora cat's body and used virus insertion to make a genetic command to make red fluorescent protein. Then they cultured the genetically modified nucleus into an embryo, and finally implanted it into the Angora cat's body, making it the surrogate mother of its own clone.
The result was successful in creating cats that emit red light under ultraviolet light. According to the Korea Times, four kittens were born through caesarean section, but one of them died during the caesarean section. In the 1960s, the CIA Science and Technology Agency launched an outrageous project: They tried to use cats to eavesdrop on spy missions.
They implanted the microphone and transmitter directly into the cat's body and connected the tail with an antenna, and the operation cost was said to be $20 million. But the cat is too uncontrollable. The Science and Technology Bureau conducted many tests, but never succeeded.
Either the cat was unable to move after the device was implanted; or the cat did not cooperate at all; there were several times when the cat escaped directly, and various accidents eventually led to the failure of the project.
Angel Cat
Grandma Feng's house in Xianyang City, China has a special cat with a 10-cm-long wing-like appendage on its back. It was a sensation across the Internet back then, and I guess everyone has an impression of it.
The reason this cat grows "wings" may be because it suffers from skin debilitation, a hereditary disease. This disease affects the way the cat's body produces collagen, which is an important part of skin tissue and tendons. Humans also suffer from skin weakness.
The disease comes in two forms: one is caused by a dominant gene and the other is caused by a recessive gene. Both have similar symptoms: unusually soft and velvety skin that can easily tear. This can easily cause wrinkles or flaps on the cat's back, because the skin on the back is more often stretched.
Postscript
Like dogs, cat domestication is based on mutual benefit.
In the early days of agriculture, humans were unable to cope with the food destruction caused by rodents. Snakes, owls are hard to tame. The most friendly cats were eventually chosen by humans, and their ability to hunt mice was highly valued. Today, they have become our family.
