Human/Chimpanzee hybrids

The gun that won that old Wild West

Pelador's thread gave me the idea to make this thread, and while reading his topic I was thinking, why hasn't there been any Human/Chimpanzee hybrids yet?

It's a pretty common fact that we are both each others closet evolutionary relative and share most of our DNA. Sure, we both have a different number of chromosomes, but so do Lions and Tigers and Horses and Donkeys, and both of those species are able to produce viable (but sterile) offspring. Not to mention Horses and Donkeys are roughly just as related as Humans and Chimpanzees.

So, what's stopping our species and Chimpanzee's from cross-breeding? Honestly, I think the only reason there hasn't been such a baby is because no one has put enough effort into making such a baby and because society doesn't want to allow such experiments going on. I know this may be a disturbing thought but it's interesting none the less.

If such a baby were produced, what do you think it's body and intelligence would be like? Bipedal or knuckle walking? Sentient? I think it would be sentient but would have the IQ of a human with mild to moderate retardation.

Lions and Tigers are close enough to crossbreed hybrids. Humans and chimps aren't.

I'm not to knowledgeable on this subject but I assume it has to do with our having evolved far more then Chimps. Sharing a close relative doesn't necessarily mean you can breed. There are also other factors playing a big role in this.

You both may be right and it may be impossible, but honestly, I don't think we have went deep enough or actually studied this subject enough to have a sure answer. There has been claims of experiments trying to make such a hybrid, and even reported pregnancies, but nothing has ever been confirmed.

If I had to guess I'd say a pregnancy would be possible, but I don't think a viable hybrid could ever be naturally born. If so, I'd guess it would have severe birth defects. But who knows?

But all that aside, say in a hypothetical situation that a successful birth did actually happen, what do you guys think it would be like physically and mentally?

*I'd say it would have far more physical endurance, strength, and ability then a normal human. It's Q.I would be far more then that of a chimpanzee. It would most likely adapt to areas far more easily then any of us. Not sure what kind of food it would eat though. Assuming it'd be a meat eater for the most part.

If you want to see a hybrid I'd suggest renting the film "Splice". It's not a hybrid you suggest but it is a human/??? hybrid nonetheless. Forewarning though the movie is really disturbing and grossly disgusting at times.

*Note I'm going by what I know and at a best case scenario.

Maybe Im not informed enough, but I think this is possible but obviously its never been tested because its injust to breed a human/monkey hybrid. Its been done with many animals who are closley related, and Im guessing the monkeys AND humans are closley related. Were both from the primeape family right? which means we have to be relative enough to reproduce. I think.

I mean its been done with Tigers and Lions, Dolphins and Whales, Donkeys and Horses, Lamas and Camels, for example. Those animals are related from the same family as well.

I wonder though.

I don't think it's possible because they are not in the same biological genus.

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

Maybe they're worried about a planet of the apes kind of situation lol

But really they probably haven't made it happen because I mean what's the point? Pretty unlikely it would be smarter than humans so there'd be no point in it unless they wanted to mass produce them for slavery but I'm confident that's illegal

They probably do exist in the wild, but most likely get killed for being different that's usualy what happens with our species genre(if that makes sense)

It would be cool to have a monkey thing like a marmoset you know the helper monkeys? Get one of them but with almost human level intelligence, how awesome would that be just have a tiny monkey friend lol

Well, chimps aren't monkeys, monkeys have tails and apes don't. Humans are apes biologically and we are primates, just like chimps. The only thing that separates us and Chimps is that we're a different species (obviously) and we don't belong to the same genus. You may not think it, but a chimp is more related to you than it is to a Gorilla or Orangutan, or any other ape or animal for that matter (besides a bonobo, but that's basically the same thing).

I think a human/chimp hybrid would share characteristics from both parents, like some people say Chimps are far stronger than humans and they may be right, but most of the time this "7x stronger" crap is way over exaggerated and for the most part they seem a lot stronger than they actually are because of their lack of self-control and savagery. Ever heard of retard strength? That's probably because a person with much lower intelligence than the average person has much less lack of control and doesn't hold anything back, not because their actually "7x stronger". Humans also have stronger legs than a chimp because obviously, our legs do what the chimps arms do. We use them for locomotion. That's why Chimps are so strong in the upper body, they constantly using their arms to move. Ever seen a guys arms that's in a wheel-chair for life? Most of those guys have massive gorilla arms for the same reason a chimp does. There may be natural factors playing a role, but for the most part, I think this "super strength" that people boast Chimps to have is grossly over exaggerated. Now, in a Gorilla's case, I really do think those monstrous beasts are 10x as strong as a human... But I digress.

My point is, I don't think a hybrid would have superman strength, I think it'd be a combination of retard strength and the best of both species, like a chimp's strong arms and a human's strong legs, or maybe they take both of those factors and triple them and become a giant 12 foot tall beast like a liger. Why the hell are ligers so big anyway?

Who would be sick enough to even attempt a sexual encounter with a chimp?

I'm sure they would be artificialy impregnated but it would still be pretty weird lol

Probably make small Neanderthall like primates

Technically could be done without two organisms having sex though. Just put some cells together.

humans and chimps can't interbreed because of blood antigens. chimps have different blood types than humans, and the mother would reject the baby.
list of canon sources:

the DB manga, and the Dr. Slump manga as it applies to the crossover during the rra saga.

list of non canon sources:

everything else, regardless of origin, format, or quality.

for those that blindly follow word of god

Isn't that the same case with an RH factor positive child and a RH negative mother or vice versa? I think me and my mom are both RH factor positive but one of my mom's friends had something weird going because she was RH factor positive and her body was rejecting the baby and they had to give her shots or something and there were no problems.

I may be just talking crap but it's just a thought, I haven't looked into this much.
