Imagine if it was deer and deer semen instead to breed superior deer on deer farms with especially excellent deer semen that costs more than you would think, but less than you would hope

I think that is one of the concerns. I like to think that they were worried the sheep would go all Jurassic Park and start trying to destroy humanity.

🚣RowboatMan: ❄️Freezing time🕰️ is an old P.I. 🥧trick...

I remember a story I was told by one of my teachers (the dept head of the technical college I attended, he was a storyteller and didn't give a gently caress about the subject). A friend of his (I'll call her Jane) had a ranch up here in Canada, and was looking to breed them. She contacted a breeder in the US, and they worked out and arranged the sale of 'the sample'. So, one weekend, she takes a trip to the States, crosses the border (this is in New Brunswick, and I believe the breeder was in Maine, so overall not a long trip). This is pre 9/11.

Jane gets there, gets a big vial of the stuff, gets it safely contained in her trunk for the trip back, pays for it, gets the paperwork, and travels back. She gets to the border, and some young guy is her border agent.

Border agent: "Anything to declare?"
Jane: "Actually, yes, I took part in a transaction and am bringing back something."

She hands the paperwork to the guy. He starts to look it over, gets a confused look on his face, and asks her to pull ahead and park in the designated spot, which she expected.

So, she does, she goes into the office and is at the desk with the guy. By her estimation, it was like the dude's first few months on the job. He's looking over the paperwork again and again, with this totally befuddled look on his face but he's not asking any questions. Jane asks "is anything wrong? Just so you know, it was a completely legal sale, it's stamped there" blah blah blah.... And the guy just nods but doesn't take his eyes off of the paperwork.

Eventually, his superior comes up and asks if there's a problem. Guy kind of hesitates, and the boss can tell something's going on. He looks at the paper and then at the guy.

Superior: "So? What's the problem?"
Border agent: "I uhhh.... I..... I don't know what that is..... E-queen..... S...... Semen?!"
Superior, kind of rolling his eyes: "Yeah, she visited a breeder. That says "Equine Semen".
Border Agent, who is still looking confused and starting to blush: "....... Uh......"
Superior: "It's HORSE CUM!" (he says this loud enough for other agents to hear. This guy doesn't give a gently caress)
Border agent: "Oh, uhhh.... Uhhhh..... In....in a jar or something??"
Superior: "what, do you want to see it? Ma'am, I assume you have that in the proper containment for transportation?"
Jane: "Oh yeah, it's safely contained."
Superior, to the agent: "She can go. She has horses and she went to a breeder to get this, and she's going to inject it into her horses. To make new horses. Did you think it was for her?"

That was my initial reation, like who cares if you splice genes or whatever. But in reading it it was the transportation of sheep and sheep parts from Kyrgystan (can bring disease to hearty american sheep) and then selling black-market semen that got him in trouble, not necessarily the weird cloning poo poo.

I will say, though, that I think you could make a credible 'slippery slope' argument here. There was this Russian doctor who advanced the field of artificial insemination in horses: Ilya Ivanov. He was a superstar and after that went to create a bunch of animal hybrids, basically mixing and matching a bunch of closely related animals. But he didn't stop there and he traveled to French Guinea where he tried to make a human chimpanzee hybrid. The government kicked him out so he went back to (now) the USSR, where a more receptive government funded his experiments. Allegedly, and this could just be internet headlines, he had told Stalin that he could make a 'Socialist man-ape superwarrior' and that his experiments were an attempt to show that god wasn't real. It did garner support from eugenicists and atheist organizations which were extremely racist even by the standards of the time, like 'well obviously gorillas should be paired with Africans, as gorillas are the darkest. Orangutans should be paired with the yellow ones'. It really blew me away, the racism. This paper: https://sci-hub.se/10.1016/j.shpsc.2008.03.004 argues that the Soviets probably actually wanted man-ape hybrids for 'rejuvination therapies' for the elite. Anyway, he couldn't find enough women who wanted to be inseminated with chimpanzee semen (he wanted to do it without telling them in Guinea) and then an orangutan died and he basically ran out of funding. He then was sentenced to a gulag b/c Stalin didn't really like scientists and he died there.

Composer of note Shostakovic toured one of his facilities and "recommended it as a sight worth seeing". He then wrote an short opera about it which was just recently recovered: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orango_(Shostakovich)

Very rarely do you find any 'good guys' in stories about animal hybrids, is my takeaway.

It's an endangered animal and he started the process by illegally importing parts from the endangered animal. Which is in violation of the Lacey Act, and is the only crime he was charged with and and what he pleaded guilty too.

The Marco Polo sheep live in the Pamir Mountains in Kyrgyzstan. Flights from North America to Bishkek range from $1100 to $2600. I found a 14 day expedition through the mountains for $4,000. Apparently from BookYourHunt.com, the average hunt costs at least $20,000. I didn't realize people would spend that kind of money to shoot a sheep, but what do I know? The exotic game trophy market has more dollars than sense :dadjoke: it would seem. So there is money to be made in the semen market if you are willing to circumvent Federal laws.

Edit: I believe Osh is the nearest large city to the mountains? Google Flights wouldn't let me route directly to that city. From what I could find it's around :10bux: to travel from Bishkek by bus and takes about 14 hours. It costs around $50 each way for a one hour flight on TezJet.

Correct. This also applies to way more animals than endangered sheep.

Well, I could probably get organ transplants from the human prey version of me, and that means I could start drinking again, but on the other hand I could eat the manimal me and I would probably feel way less guilty about it. I guess it’s a toss-up. You know what, I don’t need booze, I’d be perfectly satisfied eating meat from a creature that any normal person would consider to be an abomination. Does manimal me have big horns? If so that clinches it.
