The Green Hamster Plague

by wjw on November 29, 2024

No doubt you all remember my Nebula-winning story, “The Green Leopard Plague,” which revolves around a contagious virus which allows people to take energy direct from the sun.

Well, guess what? I’ve scored another hit on the WJW Predict-O-Meter!

According to this video, “scientists” (as they are always called in these presentations) have worked out a way to implant chloroplasts in mammalian tissue— specifically hamster tissue.

We may soon anticipate swarms of green super-hamsters running amuck over the scenery. Or at least in films with titles like “Night of the Hamster.”

I can hardly wait!
