This refers to the manufacture of biological weapons which are not properly researched and formulated with regard to unforseen events which bounce back and influence the manufacturing nation

For example - the use of anthrax as a weapon was not fully understood by the British in WW2 and certain islands in Grignard Bay Wester Ross (Scotland) were contaminated such that even today any deer who have swam to the islands need to be culled as a countermeasure to prevent contamination of the western Scottish coast.

Rabbit Calcivirus is another bioorganism which was released in New Zealand in an uncontrolled and unscientific fashion - some animals died but those rabbits which acquired immunity went on to breed a Bio resistant strain in even greater numbers than before - in other words the intent boomeranged on to the nation
