 News :. Pets: Turtles Trained for Bond Agents

The Russian army of secret agents will enlarge with new fill-ins promising to be even better than their human colleagues.

A Russian scientist claims he has invented a technology to steer turtles on remote control that can be successfully used in secret missions.

Control devices are planted on turtle's shield and vibrations penetrating through it make the animal follow orders, Alexey Burkinov from the State Pedagogical University in Rostov explained. Special surveillance devices can also be planted there, he said.

The range of missions seen as executable by the turtles varies from military ones, such as planting bombs to fitting bugs, to civil operations - for example, obsevation on animals in their natural surroundings, Burkinov believes.
