i think the issue is that milking spiders sucks so they want to move into genetically altering some other animal to produce it en mass. Last i read they were trying something with goats( SAVE THE GOATS ) to genetically modify the milk they make to make spider silk. metal as fuck.

Again? I feel like I read about this YEARS ago.
Turns out they've been talking about it since at least 2003

I saw that article about the goats while I was searching for this one.
Crazy what you can come up with when it comes to not wanting to die.
