well, a vole really.
“ In a remarkable experiment in hormone chemistry, behavioural
scientists implanted a single gene into promiscuous male voles, transforming
them at a stroke into faithful, attentive and caring partners.
“The rodent in question is the meadow vole, Microtus pennsylvanicus
-- and he is the original love rat.
“The male vole thinks nothing about mating with several females
at one time and leaving them to rear his offspring while he wanders
off in search of his next conquest.
“In contrast, the meadow vole's cousin, the prairie vole (Microtus
ochrogaster) is a model of fidelity."

weeks, but if cyclists do want to use it we would advise them to paint
a pair of eyes on their helmets," a spokeswoman told the Daily
Express. "That will put the buzzard off." ”
