Students, what are they like?

The research team at the National Human Genome Research Institute and several universities compared the same stretch of DNA in a chimpanzee, baboon, cat, dog, cow, pig, rat, mouse, chicken, zebrafish and two species of pufferfish - the Japanese delicacy Fugu and Tetraodon - with human DNA

Those last two sound just a little incongruous. Sounds to me a a bit more like someone had a few beers in the lab and decided to chuck some of their sushi in the machine as well...
