Paging Dr. Moreau

From the Just Because We Can Do It Doesn’t Mean We Should Do It file:

Hybrid embryos containing both human and animal material could be created in British laboratories within months.

The controversial research was given a green light yesterday by the UK’s fertility regulator.

A shortage of human eggs led scientists to seek permission to make hybrid embryos from human skin cells and animal eggs such as those from cows, which are plentiful in slaughterhouses.

Have we learned nothing from the countless books and movies starring werewolves and mutants, man-made freaks and circus attractions? Are there no ethics left in science? Has the human race become so full of itself that it’s willing to tamper with the very fabric of creation?
This can only end badly…
