Digital Angel Corporation Awarded Tender by United Nations Agency

International Atomic Energy Agency to Microchip Llamas in Peru

WHY????!!!!!

"the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), which is an agency of the United Nations, has awarded Digital Angel a tender to microchip llamas in Peru. The IAEA wants to ensure the llama population remains unaffected from nearby nuclear power plants. The initial order calls for 1,000 microchips and two readers."

Peruvian llamas to be guinea pigs

Getting those chips in the llamas could be tricky, the newspaper noted, since animal experts say the woolly beasts of burden, weighing up to 500 pounds, are known to spit and bite. Llamas have a reputation for being quick learners and are "extremely curious and alert."
