Snakes & a Fishy Fish & (RFID) Chips Story


Here's an odd report from a different looking site.

Poisonous snakes are to be moved from the site of a new stretch of a Nortern UK motorway and fitted with radio tags to ensure they are happy in their new home, a forest 40 miles away.

That's part one, and it'll entertain you to read how they catch and tag the critters. But wait, there's more...

My friend Joshua recently told me about the art project "Niet Voeren" in Artis Zoo (Amsterdam), featuring Fish 'n' Chips: an aquarium filled with fish carrying RFID chips, that swim through a loop to reveal their identity.

But there's no link available to anything that would verify that fish story. SAtill, it could be true, right?
