緑色の犬が生まれる…スペイン

2014/06/14

スペインで緑色の犬が生まれました。ブリーダーのアイド・バラレドさん(27歳)のもとで生まれた子犬のうち、2匹が緑色でした。一緒に生まれた他の子犬たちは普通の体色でした。

アイドさんは子犬の体が何かで汚れていると考え、洗い流そうとしましたが、もともとの体毛の色が緑なのだと気がつきとても驚いたといいます。

緑色の2匹の子犬のうち、メスの方はすぐに死んでしまいましたが、オスは今も生きています。他の子犬と比べると、体が小さく虚弱です。体の色は緑色からだんだん普通の犬のようになってきているそうです。

アイドさんの父親のマニュエル・バラレドさん(52歳)は、緑色の肌をした「超人ハルク」にちなんで子犬を「ハルク」と呼んでいます。

獣医師のダニエル・バルベルデさんは、メスの緑犬が死んだ理由と、なぜ緑色なのかを調査中です。ダニエルさんによると、スペイン国内でこれまでに緑色の犬が生まれたという科学的な報告はないとのこと。ウイルス・細菌学的な試験を行なって、この謎を解きたいとしています。

メイル・オンラインの報道によると、英国ランカシャーでも、2012年に緑色のラブラドールが生まれています。

Are these the world's first GREEN puppies? Spanish dog owner has kittens when litter of five includes two 'Hulk' pups

19:34 GMT, 12 June 2014

A Spanish dog breeder was left in shock when two tiny puppies were born a shade of green.
Aido Vallelado, 27, said she struggled to believe it when she first saw the colour of the two puppies.
Born smaller and weaker than the rest of the litter, one of the green puppies, a female, died shortly after birth - but the male puppy is still alive, although he is weak.
Ms Vallelado said: 'I thought the puppies were maybe dirty somehow and I tried to clean them, but the colour wouldn't come off and then I realised it was the colour of their fur.'

Molina, who breeds hunting dogs with her father Manuel Vallelado, 52, in the Spanish town of Laguna de Duero, said her father had called the puppies the Hulk pups, and joked that she should not get them angry.
The male puppy is now gradually beginning to lose his colouring.
Vet Daniel Valverde is now looking into the cause of death of the female puppy and the dogs' colour.

He said: 'There are no other recorded cases of this happening in Spanish scientific literature. I am carrying out virological and bacteriological tests to try and find an answer.' 
The two Spanish puppies however are not the first reported examples of green pups.
In 2012, MailOnline reported on a green Labrador puppy born in Clayon-le-Moors, Lancashire.

Naomi Grimes and Kyle Murray's two-year-old golden Labrador, Buttons, gave birth to a litter of eight - but the couple were shocked when the second in the litter came out with an unusual green glow.
The other seven puppies were born - during the 28-hour labour - with normal golden coats. 
The cause for the colouring at that time was given as exposure to a substance called biliverdin, which can be found in the placenta.
