'Human-animal' embryo green light
Regulators have agreed in principle to allow human-animal embryos to be created and used for research. But scientists wanting to use hybrids will still need to make individual applications, the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority said. An HFEA consultation showed the public were "at ease" with the idea when told it could pave the way for therapies for conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. Opponents have said many people would be "horrified" by such a move. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/6978384.stm |

You're gonna get warned for the title. But besides that, this is pretty interesting. Hopefully it won't end up like the half-animal half-human hybrids from South Park.

It may not surprise you that I've read up on this already...
Anyway, basically, it'll contain a very small amount of cow, which probably wouldn't effect the appearance should a child ever grow from the embryos. Of course, groups against this are completely over-looking this factor...

I think that the images put into the moderators heads will enrage them enough to warn you. Like imagine if they made a hybrid mansquid, I think we all know what that would look like. *ahem*
