I see nothing wrong with it. If it helps one person then it's worth it.
Epic fail on your bird thread by the way.

Life forms are a part of the environment. There are discussions of all kinds of GMO topics in Fragile Earth.
Or should we wait until some of these engineered beasts enter the wild and start affecting the environment in a more major way? An ounce of prevention; pound of cure.
GMO salmon was nearly released to live freely in the Columbia River. Luckily that was stopped (for now).
These animals can have a huge impact on our environment; for one, this experimentation may lead to new cross species diseases. I don't think this risk is worth the benefits. Look at how the AIDS epidemic developed due to human vaccines being developed using animals.
Okay so then let's put this thread into the Scientific Forum and talk about science experiments, putting HUMAN HEADS on GOATS. That's science, has nothing to DO with Earth and how it's fragile. This kid's thread is more about the actual process of putting the two together, not how about it affects the environment.
Deeeeeeeerrrrrppppp

Anyone who has owned a pet knows that animals feel. Giving them human brain potential and denying that would have any affect is laughable. Granted I did think Jesica Albas animal antics on her breakthrough series was cool. This is an abuse of the human soul. Giving a mouse or a sheep human brain potential then killing it when it expresses it is not only inhuman but murder.
Having said this I am sure there are even less ethical labs off shore from the North America where the island of Doctor Morau is as jut around the corner. This abuse of life by researchers and pharma corps is offensive.

Meet someone with a degenerative brain disease and then tell me that experiments on animals is wrong. I think experimenting on lower life forms for the sake of a medical break through is well worth it. Maybe I'm just a degenerate but I think this is fine.
