It's possible that he didn't want people to know what hard graft went into the finished product. After all, when he started his career at the tail end of the 15th century, artists were seen as craftsmen rather than geniuses. His bourgeois father disapproved of his low-status career choice. Thankfully, however, about 600 of the drawings survive, and around 95 have been beautifully reassembled in an exhibition titled...

Kang and his collaborative research group plan to expand the project to eventually include cows, fish, and chickens. “As people realize the importance of Omega-3s, our product will easily be accepted since the nutrients themselves are naturally occurring,” explained Kang. The cloned pigs, Kang said, “don’t smell fishy...
