I have known about the green florescent pigment (GFP) gene in jellyfish and mice and medical applications but i did not know that this gene was being used in the pet trade until today. I found a cool video that really shows off what this gene can do and how cool it is when it is inserted into an already cool animal like the axolotl.

Now I want to see this application in something really cool. Glowing ball pythons anyone? what about a leusistic monocled cobra that glows?
