THAT'S CORRECT. BUT WE'VE HEARD RUMORS THAT THE FORMER TEST SUBJECTS ENDED UP ON THE BLACK MARKET INSTEAD OF BEING DESTROYED... AND THAT'S HOW THESE TERRORISTS I REMEMBER IT WELL. THEY WERE CHURNING OUT EXPERIMENTS AT A FRANTIC PACE UNTIL IT WAS KILLED By THE NEW ADMINISTRATION. I HEARD THEY WEREN'T ANYWHERE CLOSE TO ACHIEVING THEIR GOALS WHEN THE PLUG WAS PULLED. "PROJECT APPLE.” A RESEARCH [ INITIATIVE CONDUCTED BY THE PREVIOUS OSTANIAN REGIME 7 70 PRODUCE HIGHLY — } INTELLIGENT \ ANIMALS FOR MILITARY PURPOSES.
THEY MIGHT BE THE SUBJECTS OF A FAILED EXPERIMENT, BUT THESE DOGS COULD STILL BE HIGHLY TRAINED OR POSSESS ENHANCED INTELLIGENCE. NO IDEA WHAT THEY MIGHT BE CAPABLE OF, SO BE CAREFUL. STEP AWAY I PROMISE FROM THE TLL MAKE DOG, KID. THIS QUICK.
