In Search Of Bigger Pelts
Anyone that has spent any time in the high country of the American west, knows about this beast:

The fur-bearing trout was specially bred, years ago, to withstand the ultracold waters that flow off the spring melts. It was done by fertilizing trout eggs with beaver sperm.
Now it appears that the pelts are really worth something, so they are back in the lab trying to increase the size of the critter:
What will they think of next? (snicker, smirk, guffaw)
