For the first time in history, a hybrid between sheep and human was created, something that on the one hand could save many lives, but at the same time, poses a very important ethical debate.
All this arises from the need to find alternatives to organ donors, which are insufficient to save all the lives that need them.
It has been proven that most of the cases the direct transplant of organs from animals to humans do not work, so it was decided to do the following, implant human stem cells in sheep embryos to create humans directly, in them the portion human of these sheep is only 0.01% and it is necessary to reach a percent for the organs produced are compatible and not rejected by the human, but it is a first, step can be said that these embryos were discarded shortly after to create them.

But the ethical debate is already here, we should bring to life animals with possibilities that they presented traits of monstrosity, with the sole purpose of having organs to save the lives of people, but killing the animal.
