The Chinese Humanzee Project - In which the human race plays god

[:gold:]

I thought it failed because the human eggs didnt take the chimp sperm? Its been a while since i read up on it.
Nuts how many women where willing to get injected with that, hey maybe they something cofmy from the state for their participation.

Humans have 46 chromosomes, chimps have 48.
You can create human-chimp chimeras, but I don’t think breeding directly would work.

It's hard not to be interested the idea of human genome engineering. The potential for life improvement is massive, and the immoral acts necessary for it are carried out daily. If anything the chimpanzee child is more likely to have a father holding is hand when he dies at the old age of 13.
It will also be pretty funny if hybrids are popularized and we'll have actually scientifically proven superiority at some fields (at least once the scientists find out how to make the hybrids not die from cancer).
