introducing the final entrant in the isle of kevin strange creatures beauty competition - the LABRACHIMP.
double click the pic to see it full size.
this gem of genetic engineering doesn't just fetch sticks, it writes messages with them (this one wrote 'next time, fetch it yourself', for example).
it climbs trees, mates with anything that moves, and just loves bananas - if only it could open one up with those paws.
and clever?  wow!
i sent it to the shop to get a newspaper, and it was gone so long i went to check what was happening.
it was sitting on a bench with a couple of old blokes discussing the latest crisis in afghanistan and rubbishing chelsea's performance in the carling cup final.

anyway, that's it from the island laboratories for a while.
you can easily review them all by clicking the strange creatures tag on the right ...
THAT WAY!
