Vietnam Bans Hamsters, But They Do It Rationally

Posted on March 7th, 2008 by blue collar scientist

Vietnam has banned hamsters, but as funny as this sounds, there’s a rationalist running this national security effort. Nguyen Thanh Son, an official at the agricultural ministry, said:

“I think the Vietnam animal health department should take some samples, conduct tests, and see how dangerous the hamsters in Vietnam really are.”

I’m fully in support of this. Any good skeptic should take samples and conduct tests before concluding that the hamsters are (or are not) coming to kill us.
