Is 8chan still a thing? Honestly I like the concept of image boards and thought it was cool of 8chan to allow you to make your own boards. But of course image boards attract the worst
If such a thing was currently possible, you'd know about it.
Haha... Well put
I assume closely related hominids which are now extinct. Neanderthal DNA is present in current human strains, which means they didn't even speciate (though potentially successful gestation was rarer).
Why am I writing like an alien nerd observing humans?
There were rumors of a human/chimp hybrid decades ago:

Despite the existence of Oliver, it still seems unproven:
The Nazis & the Japanese experimented with this as well. AFAIK neither faction ever achieved anything resembling success. Fertilization occurs, but then immediately stops as there's no compatibility, and the cells die.
Genetic testing basically puts a large amount of doubt on it though. More likely it wasnβt a hybrid than was.
Decades you sayπΆπΆ
You're short a comma. It's the American Ghost Comma right after 'humans'.
Remember that Rogers Telecom paid out a million bucks because it couldn't write a clear sentence.

As other commenters point out, not since the extinctionof Neanderthals, Denisovans, etc. But even if it were possible, the hybrid would not be fertile: our chromosome 2 is a fusion of two chromosomes that are separate in other related species, so there's no way meiotic crossover recombination could possibly work.
