Cue the Rainbow....

[Via CFP] Scientists in Japan say they have succeeded in breeding mice with two fathers, using eggs originating from male cells. While the scientific breakthrough could pave the way for new fertility treatments, experts say it is still a long way from being used in humans.
Why new fertility treatments when there's already too many to feed?
Populations are reaching and passing birth/death tipping points in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas. Fertility treatments that are cheaper and easier than those currently available may be what keeps the Japanese, Spaniards, and Russians from going extinct in their native ranges. Ditto cheetahs and white rhinos. | Katsuhiko Hayashi, a renowned biologist at the University of Osaka, said his team had used chromosomal engineering to breed seven "healthy" mice pups, hailing a "first case of making robust mammal oocytes (eggs) from male cells".
