5. Actually it's not that outlandish
Of cours it doesn't mean half-rat half-man. But in the lab you often create what's called "hybrid lines" for a variety of purposes. You inject DNA from certain species into cells of other species for a number of purposes. So, in that respect "human-animal hybrids" are quite possible.

it's apparently a 'controversy'. i guess it's the one to replace the stem cell research controversy.
