The Era Of Chimeras: Scientists Fearlessly Create Bizarre Human/Animal Hybrids

Bioethics: Human-animal hybrid embryos

Human stem cells ©
In May 2008 a cross-party attempt to ban hybrid human animal embryos was defeated on a free vote in the House of Commons, by 336 to 176. MPs had been debating the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill, which would allow regulated research using hybrid or 'admix' embryos, where the nuclei of human cells are inserted into animal eggs. The resulting embryos would be kept for up to 14 days to harvest stem cells.
In the present state of science, hybrid embryos are produced as research tools, and only kept alive for 14 days or fewer. The article below only deals with the ethical issues of this case, and not with the ethics of producing new creatures that are a combination of animal and human.
A hybrid embryo is a mixture of both human and animal tissue. There are several types of hybrid embryo (listed below), but recent controversy has focused on cytoplasmic embryos.
These are created by transferring nuclei containing DNA from human cells into animal eggs that have had almost all of their genetic information removed.

haha I read beforeitsnews.com on occasion just for entertainment. Most of the articles are not to be taken seriously.

Did you guys know its only illegal to clone humans in 5 states?

^ ppl only believe or even open minded to what they are able to.

the sinister dark forces are doing some evil genetic experiments.

In terms of scientific ethics, restrictions on the creation of human–animal hybrids have proved a controversial matter in multiple countries. While the state of Arizona banned the practice altogether in 2010, a proposal on the subject that sparked some interest in the United States Senate from 2011 to 2012 ended up going nowhere. Although the two concepts are not strictly related, discussions of experimentation into blended human and animal creatures has paralleled the discussions around embryonic stem-cell research (the 'stem cell controversy').[3] The creation of genetically modified organisms for a multitude of purposes has taken place in the modern world for decades, examples being specifically designed foodstuffs made to have features such as higher crop yields through better disease resistance.[10]

Seriously wrong... looks like science gone wrong
