A report in the latest edition of National Geographic revealed that
some scientist believe that the ginger gene could be extinct by as
early as the year 2060. Apparently the fact the gingers haven't been
sleeping with other gingers has contributed to the decline. The world's
most potent ginger population exists in Scotland where an estimate 40%
of them carry the ginger gene (only 13% have red hair) although the
world's ginger population sits closer to 2%. The only thing that might
save the saucy gene is if all the gingers of the world move to Scotland
and start procreating like rabbits. Not likely.
