With this control over the growth process, inedible animal structures (bones, respiratory system, digestive system, skin/scales, eyes, mouth, and the nervous system) are not grown. As a result, cultured fish production is more efficient in its use of energy, land, and water; and it produces less waste. Also, animals are not subjected to the stressful conditions of traditional fish-farms & large-net fishing operations.
Resident Bioethicist, Kapa W. Azzurro, remarked, "This is an amazing breakthrough with numerous positive implications for the environment, human nutrition, and the ethical treatment of animals." What's next? "We're very close to producing nutritionally advanced meat products from the cells of land animals. Imagine, deliciously juicy steaks made from face-less cows!", she added.
