The humanzee is both scientifically possible and morally defensible.
It is a bit of a stretch, but by no means impossible or even unlikely that a hybrid or a chimera combining a human being and a chimpanzee could be produced in a laboratory.
If that prospect isn’t shocking enough, here is an even more controversial suggestion: Doing so would be a terrific idea.

It’s Time to Make Human-Chimp Hybrids
Many
consider this reprehensible,
but
“The humanzee is. . .
scientifically
possible
and morally defensible.”
Though
this may
strike some as absurd,
we
could call the result
Donald J. Trump III.
(This
would not be
the only time where
someone
named Trump
had funny hair.)
Don't
be put off and think this harebrained,
if
you click the link you'll see Putin explained*.

*During
the 1920s, a Russian biologist with the marvelously Slavic name Ilya Ivanovich Ivanov appears to have made the first serious,
scientifically informed efforts to create a genetic hybrid between
chimpanzees and human beings. . . .it was Ivanov who made the most
serious efforts at combining human and nonhuman apes.
