quote:

"The multiyear, peer-reviewed study, by the National Toxicology Program, found 'low incidences' of two types of tumors in male rats that were exposed to the type of radio frequencies that are commonly emitted by cellphones. The tumors were gliomas, which are in the glial cells of the brain, and schwannomas of the heart."

quote:

The animals exposed to RF had a greater chance of being diagnosed with malignant glioma type of brain cancer, as well as developing a tumor found on the heart. "The incidence grew with greater levels of exposure to the radiation. Some of the rats had glioma—a tumor of the glial cells in the brain —or schwannoma of the heart," said Maron.

looks like having no friends wins again!

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.
