I know plenty of people who would love to glow in the dark, They'd save a fortune on spotlights.
Another thing that would confuse a cat, is the fact that they are hunters, they hunt with camouflage and stealth.
'fluro' is baaaaad camouflage.
Introducing genes to living specimens is only a geneticist's dream at the moment. Perhaps the word nightmare would be more appropriate. Of course that is only taking published results into account. I can imagine with the potential that gene manipulation has, the real capabilities are far more advanced. One thing about genetic experiments is that live human subjects are available with at least two provisos

2) They keep their mouths shut-one way or another.
I have heard genes described as organic software.
I'm sure those researchers involved in gene technology would have no problems with software piracy.
Unfortunately rather than money being the focus, the thing that is most likely going to be destroyed is any semblance of sanity our species can pretend to have.
It shouldn't be hard to effect our evolution to the point where we have 'created' something which we have no means of understanding. Considering how little we understand about ourselves the way we are now.
