Animal Intuition
On a four-month journey across the Corn Belt, a farm journalist found that cattle won't touch GM corn stubble, hogs won’t eat their ration when GM crops are included, and raccoons romp by the dozen in the organic corn but leave the Bt fields untouched. One farmer described observing a herd of 40 deer “mowing down his tofu beans while across the road there isn't one doe eating on the Round-up Readies... even the mice will move on down the line if given an alternative to these 'crops.'
What is it that they know instinctively that most of us ignore? I have been traveling around with a bag of contaminated cob corn on the floor of my vehicle, and I have begun to think of it as if it was a bag of plutonium.”
