Weird Wide Web - Test DNA of Dog Waste
Loading player...
Tel Aviv wants to try a new way of encouraging people to pick up after their pet — a DNA database. Dog owners in the city may soon have to register their pet's DNA in a database when applying for a dog license. If officials find waste left behind on the street, they can test it for DNA and search the database to find the owner, who will then be fined. The new law still needs to be approved by Israel's Interior Ministry.
