Stop Making Tigon and Liger

we are not the one opposed to strange love,
we live in a world of same sex weddings,
but a fish eagle’s romance with a dove,
would be a thing of tabloid news headings!
What about park bench with frog and a snake?
cuddling like teens with lips locked in a kiss?
you would perhaps say it is a mistake,
potential meal in romance with a hiss!
If animal kingdom adapted our rules,
You may see a fox in date with rabbit,
or mares trying to impress handsome mules,
or a zebra and lion co-habit!
would be politically incorrect,
to even denounce cross species romance,
species will emerge that will look suspect,
you can’t identity with single glance!
It is hard to say what lies in future,
for now animals follow the gene code,
so please let it be, not tutor nature,
or else a cobra may look like a toad!

to oppose human experiments at creating creatures that nature did not plan to create, causing much hardship to them in the name of science!

Now that 'anything goes,' what's to stop anything from going?! --- Nothing. Just hope that heterosexual marriage does not become a felony. (I'm serious). Sanity and Sagacity, Gershon

I hope it does not go that far! They do cross breed fruits. Like pluots from apricots and plums.

Lets hope! But the problem is we have very little control over the consequences as we have seen with Corona virus!!

Yes, I most certainly agree, the scientific community should not engage in the act of cross breeding species! You never know what they'll end up with, and the rest of us have to live with their mistakes!
