Genetically engineered pigs that produce more omega-3 and less omega-6 fatty acids. Of course, passing FDA regulations is going to be a challenge.

from TFA:
Pregnant women are told omega-3s are important for fetal development but are warned to limit consumption of fish that may be high in mercury, which can harm a fetus.

"In this case, we think our pigs will help a lot," Dai said.

Whether meat from the omega-3 pigs or other genetically altered animals will ever reach Americans' dinner plates is uncertain.

God-made Mercury or man-made pigs?
