    Here is a chess set not for the squeamish – with the figures made up of taxidermy mice.The kings, queens, knights, bishops , castles and pawns are all rodents dressed in appropriate costumes.The set includes 16 light colored mice and 16 dark mice, in various sizes, pawns being the smallest.The mice are all individually stuffed by self-taught taxidermist Rachael Garcia from Florida in the USA.She stresses that the dead mice were acquired from a captive breeding facility that distributes frozen rodents for pet reptile feeding.As well as mice, Rachael uses foam, cotton, wire, beads, fabric, wood, paint, paper and glue to make each set which take at least 30 to 60 days to complete and dry.She said:” Every mouse was a unique creature in life, making each piece of this set a one of kind creation hand stuffed by me.”The set comes complete with wooden handmade chess board, and storage boxes.She can customise both the costumes of the pieces and the colours and board design. The sets are available from her store on shopping website Etsy under the trading name TheCurious13.

    Mimo the cat asleep with one toy mouse on his head
    Mimo the cat sleeps soundly despite toy mice, Japan - 01 Feb 2016
    A cat owner was so impressed by their pet's ability to sleep soundly they tested him out - by placing toy MICE all over his body.

    The Japanese feline fan snapped Mimo the cat in a typically laid-back snoozing position.

    Lying on his back and sprawled on a comfy duvet, Mimo didn't flinch a whisker when one plush rodent was gently plonked onto his head.

    A further TWENTY meeces liberally placed about the head? Not a flicker.

    So, a full-body mouse blanket ensued, with a top-to-toe covering in the critters.

    The mysterious - and michevious - 22-year-old owner, known only as Mimoza, tells REX Shutterstock: "He didn't wake up, so I played a trick".

    Japanese Study Raises Hopes Of Cure For Baldness
    New hopes of a cure for baldness have been sparked after Japanese researchers claimed to have successfully grown hair on hairless mice.

    Scientists from the Tsuji Lab Research Institute for Science and Technology at the Tokyo University of Science successfully implanted follicles created from stem cells onto the hairless rodents.

    The creatures eventually grew hair, which continued regenerating in normal growth cycles after old hairs fell out.

    When stem cells are grown into tissues or organs, they usually need to be extracted from embryos.

    However, professor Takashi Tsuji, who led the team, found hair follicles can be grown with adult stem cells.

    Published results of the study in the UK scientific journal 'Nature Communications', the article said: "Our current study thus demonstrates the potential for not only hair regeneration therapy but also the realisation of bioengineered organ replacement using adult somatic stem cells," it said.

    It is now hoped that people could possibly use their own cells for implants that will give them their hair back.

    Autumn Animals
    With the arrival of the new season leaves across the country are bursting into Autumn colour.

    And these super cute creatures couldn't be more pleased.

    The abundance of leaves means they have an endless supply of things to play with and burrow into.

    From crazy canines chasing falling leaves to adorable ducks snuggling beneath one - these animals are all crazy for autumn.

    Baby Harvest Mice are released back into the wild, Somerset, Britain - Sep 2009
    A BERRY MICE LIFE

    The future is looking berry nice for these tiny harvest mice.

    The cute critters got their first taste of freedom, not to mention a juicy meal, after being released into the wild.

    In total, five mice were all released into the countryside around Somerset following a successful breeding programme.

    And after tasting the blackberries the youngsters all scampered off into the undergrowth and their new lives, which will hopefully include producing lots of offspring.

    Harvest mice are the smallest and rarest mice in all of Europe.

    Staff at the Secret World Centre have been playing their part to help secure the future of the miniature mice species by running a back to the wild breeding scheme in order to boost their numbers.

    And after a baby boom earlier in the year, the adult rodents are ready to venture into the great outdoors.

    In recent years life has been tough for the harvest mouse, due to modern farming techniques and loss of habitat.

    It doesn't help that the mini mice grow to just 2in long and weigh less than a 10p piece.

    However, according to Georgette Shearer of the British Mammal Society, the late harvest in some parts of the country has proven to be a real boon for the mice.

    She comments: "They can have three litters a year and use cereal crops for nesting. You can imagine what happens to the last litter when the harvester arrives.

    "Any delay in the harvest can be a good thing for them."

    The cute critters got their first taste of freedom, not to mention a juicy meal, after being released into the wild.

    In total, five mice were all released into the countryside around Somerset following a successful breeding programme.

    And after tasting the blackberries the youngsters all scampered off into the undergrowth and their new lives, which will hopefully include producing lots of offspring.

    Harvest mice are the smallest and rarest mice in all of Europe.

    Staff at the Secret World Centre have been playing their part to help secure the future of the miniature mice species by running a back to the wild breeding scheme in order to boost their numbers.

    And after a baby boom earlier in the year, the adult rodents are ready to venture into the great outdoors.

    In recent years life has been tough for the harvest mouse, due to modern farming techniques and loss of habitat.

    It doesn't help that the mini mice grow to just 2in long and weigh less than a 10p piece.

    However, according to Georgette Shearer of the British Mammal Society, the late harvest in some parts of the country has proven to be a real boon for the mice.

    She comments: "They can have three litters a year and use cereal crops for nesting. You can imagine what happens to the last litter when the harvester arrives.

    "Any delay in the harvest can be a good thing for them."

    Teruhiko Wakayama, head scientist in the Laboratory of Genomic Reprogramming, working at his desk in the Riken Kobe Institute Center for Developmental Biology, in Kobe, Japan, Thursday, Nov. 13th, 2008. Dr. Wakayama has published a scientific paper explaining his process of cloning mice whose bodies had been frozen for as long as 16 years, he says it may be possible to use this technique to resurrect mammoths and other extinct species working from traces of their frozen DNA.
