Comics
Wikipedia pages
- Anatoli Bugorski "He is known for surviving a radiation accident in 1978, when a high-energy proton beam from a particle accelerator passed through his brain." You may be disappointed to learn that he did not develop like Dr. Manhattan.
- Ophiocordyceps unilateralis "Commonly known as zombie-ant fungus." This fungus inspired a short story for me.
- Ted Kacyznski You already know who he is
- Oliver the Chimpanzee "Oliver was a former "performing" ape once promoted as a missing link or "humanzee" due to his somewhat human-like appearance and a tendency to walk upright. Despite his somewhat unusual appearance and behavior, scientists found that Oliver was not a human-chimpanzee hybrid."
- Human-animal hybrid This page discusses, well, human-animal hybrids. In fiction and non-fiction. The page on just plain "hybrids" is here.
- Human chimera "A human chimera is a human with a subset of cells with a distinct genotype than other cells, that is, having genetic chimerism. In contrast, an individual where each cell contains genetic material from a human and an animal is called a human–animal hybrid."
- Humanized mouse "A humanized mouse is a mouse carrying functioning human genes, cells, tissues, and/or organs. Humanized mice are commonly used as small animal models in biological and medical research for human therapeutics."
- Ilya Ivanov "Russian and Soviet biologist who specialized in the field of artificial insemination and the interspecific hybridization of animals ... famous for his controversial attempts to create a human-ape hybrid by inseminating three female chimpanzees with human sperm." Not much on this page, but doing further research would be interesting. Just know, he was a bad man. Human or not, forced artificial insemination is not right by any means. There is no way to excuse what he did to the chimpanzees.
- Humanzee "The humanzee (sometimes chuman, manpanzee or chumanzee) is a hypothetical hybrid of chimpanzee and human, thus a form of human–animal hybrid."
- Panbanisha "... A female bonobo that featured in studies on great ape language by Professor Sue Savage-Rumbaugh."
