Animals such as farm animals have been engineered to resist disease, grow faster, and reproduce better than past generations. Adding a trait that can fasten the process of breeding the desired genotype can be created into that current generation instead of having to wait for that trait to be brought out or the offspring has to reach that maturity stage to bred. Saving animals that are near extinction can be saved by fast reproduction. Breeding though can be super random on what genes they get from each parent. So with modifying them they can be be more predictable. Genetic Modifying them moves discrete genes or blocks of genes at a time. For example the growth of genetically modified salmon can make the salmon grow larger from their offspring before. Almost 3x the length that they usually are. These traits that are transferred can be more predictable for the scientist the wondering how big these baby salmon will grow. This example shows that having a more predictable reproduction can benefit our research and the way that animals can reproduce faster can help animals from going
