Scientists made these animals look like professional bodybuilders

Know as the Belgian Blue, this particular breed of cattle comes from Belgium, as their name more than thoroughly suggests.

Needless to explain, such specimens are by no means a result of natural selection and of bulls and cows being allowed to mate as they wished.

Quite the contrary: scientists have worked long and hard to make sure only the bulls with the leanest muscles and lowest body fat got to impregnate cows, something which in turn lead to ever more sculpted “offsprings” being born at farms in this country.

Although the fat content of the meat provided by these super cows is considerably smaller than that of your run-of-the-mill beef, the fact remains that researchers have yet to figure out whether feeding on such specimens could pose any kinds of threat to public health.
