A new planet features a super-organism whose individual bodies all use 
patches of green fur to see, even the germs. In short order, the colony 
livestock begins to parthenogenically produce  young, also with green 
fur instead of eyes. When the women colonists all turn up pregnant, the 
colony ship captain sends a warning back to earth before 
self-destructing the engines to sterilize the colony site. A research 
mission follows.
