EDINBURGH, July 29 (Reuters) - Environmental groups reacted angrily on
Thursday to news Britain had allowed secret experiments in Scotland to
create genetically modified salmon that grew up to four times faster than
normal.

Details of the so-called "Franken-fish" experiments emerged for the first
time late on Wednesday when Scottish Secretary John Reid told the House of
Commons thousands of fish were given an extra gene to make them grow faster.
