Animals with human attributes (or humans with animal attributes) are common in fiction, especially in fantasy and science fiction (since they do not exist except in fantastical settings). In these sorts of settings, such improbable creatures may be left unexplained, or presumed to be the result of evolution, as humans and other animals are in real life. However, other times the writer of the story justifies their existence by making them the product of deliberate engineering — usually through scientific means. This trope is about human-like animals or animal-like humans created through science. The motivations behind such a project may vary; perhaps the resulting creatures are created by the military as Super Soldiers, perhaps they are created by a misanthropic scientist trying to replace humanity with animal-people, maybe they are simply the result of pure scientific curiosity. In any case, these beings often undergo the same treatment as Artificial Intelligences, Artificial Humans and other scientifically-created life forms — abuse from dispassionately cruel scientists and prejudiced humans, usually prompting them to Escape from the Lab and unite with others of their kind as a Secret Project Refugee Family. Expect a lot of thorny questions about What Measure Is a Non-Human?. Often the result of genetic engineering, with human and animal genes mixed and matched (either from conception or later on in their life) to create a being with the best of both worlds, a sort of human-animal hybrid. A common project for Mad Scientists, especially Evilutionary Biologists. May be on any point of the Sliding Scale of Anthropomorphism, from Little Bit Beastly to Beast Man to Funny Animal — however, animals given human intelligence (and maybe the ability to speak) but no other augmentations belong in the Uplifted Animal sub-trope, not here. As a rule of thumb, if it walks on two legs, it belongs here. If they start out as humans or animals, it's Was Once a Man and Anthropomorphic Transformation by science respectively. |

The ani-droids from Argo and Ani-Droids are an unusual example, as they are robots rather than biological creatures. However, they otherwise fit this trope, as they are designed to be anthropomorphs so they can be cute instead of threatening to humans who would otherwise be uncomfortable with them. | |

The X5 series of Transgenics from Dark Angel were genetically engineered humans designed to be Super Soldiers for the US government, and many are given animal genes for that purpose. Main character Max is genetically engineered with cat genes (and thus has a mating cycle) but looks entirely human, while other Transgenics like Joshua (a human/dog hybrid and the first Transgenic developed) and Mole (a human/lizard hybrid) look much more animalistic. | |

The Caninu and Felineko of the Little Tail Bronx universe came into existence after the Juno information system erased humanity and terraformed the Earth to purify it of their war. The Juno then used the data of all other living organisms to re-seed the planet with new life, eventually mixing in cats and dogs with the human genome through a process of rapid evolution. A piece of supplementary material for Solatorobo: Red the Hunter explains why cats and dogs were specifically chosen as humanity's successors: Yurlungur, the personality AI that was birthed from Australia's Juno so that it could interact with humans, not only valued the two species for their adaptability to different environments, but the research team she interacted with also took care of some cats and dogs as a way to manage their mental health, which she interpreted as an act of love on their behalf. | |

Shin Kazamatsuri from Shin Kamen Rider: Prologue is "fondly" remembered as the first and only Kamen Rider that isn't really masked nor a rider, but instead a Humanoid Abomination who takes the bug-themed leanings of the Showa-era Kamen Riders to it's logical conclusion. The poor lad was experimented on by his father Dr. Kazmatsuri and his partner Dr. Onizuka, but was unknowingly gene-spliced with Grasshopper DNA. Allowing him to turn into a Grasshopper-monster, with a henshin that's just pure Body Horror and poor Shin is clearly in pain throughout the whole Transformation Sequence. | |

The Simpsons: In the last segment of "Treehouse of Horror XIII" ("The Island of Doctor Hibbert", obviously spoofing The Island of Doctor Moreau), the Simpson family go on vacation to a remote island, where Dr. Hibbert (who now lives there) has become a Mad Scientist obsessed with genetic engineering. Hibbert turns the Simpsons (along with many other recurring citizens of Springfield) into a wide variety of human-animal hybrids, some more animalistic than others. | |

Inherit the Earth takes place in a seemingly medieval world populated by sentient bipedal animals whose ancestors were uplifted by humanity before a disaster wiped them out. The opening narration states that humans gave them "reaching hands" as well as "thinking minds", and the introductory cinematic shows cave paintings of humanoid animals, so it's likely that they were designed to be humanoid rather than being typical Uplifted Animals. | |

The Beastmen in Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann were engineered by Lordgenome to enforce his rule, combining a basic human shape with traits of various animals. For instance, Viral is part cat and part shark. In addition to giving them whatever extra abilities would be useful, they are all sterile, ensuring that they cannot possess Spiral Power, which Lordgenome is trying to suppress. | |

In All Tomorrows, some of the post-human species engineered by the Qu fall into this territory. While they are all technically human, they bear an uncanny resemblance to other Earth mammals, especially the elephant-like Titans, the bat-like Pterosapiens, the dolphin-like Tool Breeders, and the antelope-like Mantelopes. | |

Human-like Chimeras in Fullmetal Alchemist are made by taking a human being and fusing them with an animal using alchemy, which in the setting is treated less like magic than a science. Chimeras need a human base to be capable of speech, though this fact is a state secret. | |

The DC Animated Universe features multiple examples of mad scientists creating human-animal hybrids (or turning people into them) through genetic splicing: Batman: The Animated Series: The pilot episode "On Leather Wings" has Man-Bat as its antagonist, the result of Dr. Kirk Langstrom becoming addicted to a formula for turning people into human-bat hybrids. Unlike with most examples, Langstrom can turn from human to Man-Bat and back, essentially making him a werebat. Later in "Terror in the Sky", Kirk's wife Francine accidentally mutates herself with the Man-Bat formula, causing her to repeatedly and involuntarily transform into a similar werebat monster. "Tyger, Tyger" has Dr. Emile Dorian as the antagonist, a geneticist who uses his talents to create various human-animal hybrids, including the ape-man Garth and the cat-man Tygrus. He even goes so far as to turn Catwoman into a literal cat-woman, intending her to be a mate for Tygrus. "Moon of the Wolf" has an example similar to Man-Bat, with the athlete Anthony Romulus becoming a werewolf after Professor Milo gives him a steroid derivative based on wolf estrogen. Batman Beyond: "Splicers" has its antagonist Dr. Abel Cuvier running a for-profit splicing clinic, injecting people with animal DNA. When political pressure from anti-splicing activists threatens to criminalize his business, he reacts by sending three of his mutated minions to try killing Gotham's district attorney. When Batman intervenes, Cuvier splices him with bat DNA, which temporarily turns him into a Man-Bat-like monster. "Curse of the Kobra" features the reptile-worshiping Kobra cult, with many of their members having spliced themselves with snake DNA. Their leader Zander and a few of his henchmen turn themselves into human-dinosaur hybrids before they try to Take Over the World, and Zander even attempts to have Max spliced against her will to serve as his mate (though Batman stops them before they could do so). In Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker, one of the Jokerz gang members working for the Joker is a hyena splicer named Woof. Justice League has the recurring minor villain Cheetah, who in this universe was a geneticist who spliced herself with feline DNA. |

There are several instances of humans being transformed into animal hybrids through science; like Morbius (a scientist who accidentally combined himself with vampire bat DNAnote though he turned into a mostly human-looking "living vampire"), the Lizard (a scientist who gave himself lizard DNA), Vermin (a homeless man given rat DNA by a Mad Scientist), and Tiger Shark (an athlete given tiger shark DNA by a Mad Scientist, who himself would later return having spliced himself with starfish DNA and using fish-human hybrids as minions). | |

The Blood (later known as Bar Sinister) from Shaman's Tears were artificially created human/animal hybrids; each designed to have specific traits from the animal side (wings on the bat hybrid, Prehensile Tail and feet on the monkey hybrid, et cetera). The evil corporation that created them felt justified in treating them as possessions as they had a court ruling stating that they weren't human — merely a higher form of animal — and therefore do not have human rights. | |

Florence Ambrose, the protagonist of Freefall, is a Bowman's Wolf, part of an experimental breed of red wolves genetically engineered to have humanoid form. They were created as a proof-of-concept for the uplifting of native life on planets inhospitable to Earth life. Technically, the first animals given human traits through genetic engineering in the setting were an army of chimp Super Soldiers, but they were more traditional Uplifted Animals with minimal anatomical modifications, as evidenced by Dr. Bowman. | |

In the Discworld novel Witches Abroad, the evil Godmother transforms a wolf into a tragic wolf/human hybrid, capable of pretending unconvincingly to be someone's grandmother, simply because that's how the story goes. (Animals transformed into humans start thinking a bit like humans, but still have their own nature beneath it; the wolf, on the other hand, doesn't know what it is.) | |

The Therian NPC faction from Age of Wonders: Planetfall were once humans before they were experimented on with animal DNA and became animal-human hybrids. They were used in experiments to cure diseases and create superior beings until their first test subject, known as "The Deer", exposed the horrible truth of the experiments. Since the shutdown of these horrid projects, they occupied many planets as refugees, belonging to neither human nor animals and are no longer welcome in society, yet remain positive on life. | |

Batman cartoons (aside from the DCAU): Kirk Langstrom appears in The Batman, becoming the monstrous Man-Bat in order to be feared like the Batman. In a later episode, a group of three disgruntled college students steal Langstrom's mutagen and splice their genes with fox, shark and vulture DNA, becoming the animalistic Terrible Trio to wreak havoc on their campus, which motivates Langstrom's Heel–Face Turn. Man-Bat also appears in Beware the Batman. Unlike most versions of the character, Kirk Langstrom wasn't responsible for his own transformation, which was caused by Professor Pyg and Mr. Toad injecting him with a mutagenic serum before enslaving him with a Mind-Control Device.

The Mutates in Gargoyles are a group of formerly-human test subjects that were genetically altered by Dr. Sevarius in experiments to create gargoyle-like beings for Xanatos. They were all spliced with bat, cat and electric eel DNA, thus mutating them into winged cat-people with electrical powers as a result. This technology is later used to transform Wolf of the Pack into a literal Wolf Man. | |

The entire cast of Albedo: Erma Felna EDF are sapient and humanoid versions of Earth animals, presumably thanks to the Creators that brought life to their space sector. No one knows who they are or why they decided to put many different races in a single place, and many scientists are trying to find any clue about who they really are. It's eventually revealed that the Creators were humans, who engineered anthropomorphics for the sole purpose of being guinea pigs for a big, unethical social scientific experiment. | |

Batman: The Animated Series: The pilot episode "On Leather Wings" has Man-Bat as its antagonist, the result of Dr. Kirk Langstrom becoming addicted to a formula for turning people into human-bat hybrids. Unlike with most examples, Langstrom can turn from human to Man-Bat and back, essentially making him a werebat. Later in "Terror in the Sky", Kirk's wife Francine accidentally mutates herself with the Man-Bat formula, causing her to repeatedly and involuntarily transform into a similar werebat monster. "Tyger, Tyger" has Dr. Emile Dorian as the antagonist, a geneticist who uses his talents to create various human-animal hybrids, including the ape-man Garth and the cat-man Tygrus. He even goes so far as to turn Catwoman into a literal cat-woman, intending her to be a mate for Tygrus. "Moon of the Wolf" has an example similar to Man-Bat, with the athlete Anthony Romulus becoming a werewolf after Professor Milo gives him a steroid derivative based on wolf estrogen. |

BattleTech: The Magistracy of Canopus is known to have catgirls, mermaids, and a few other human-animal hybrid types, all of which are the result of humans getting voluntary surgical modifications and cybernetic implants. Extreme body modification is not frowned upon there and such people are quite common in the traveling pleasure circuses. | |

The Ferin of Aurora (2019) are a fantasy variant of this trope, created by a mysterious mage who would curse people into half-animal beings with enhanced strength and healing abilities but no magic for the slightest reasons. They were treated as monsters at first until people realized they were victims and started treating them better... that is, until they discovered they could have children that would also be Ferin and they were driven out of human settlements due to being seen as an existential threat. They are treated somewhat better now but there is still heavy discrimination, especially for predator Ferin. There are three main types of Ferin with different characteristics. The Unstable Ferin which were created by the mage when they were less skilled and will shift between a human and animalistic form at random and are viewed as the most dangerous type due to their volatile emotions. The Shifter Ferin which can voluntarily change from a fully animal form and non-Ferin form which only slight hints to their true natures and they are viewed with paranoia as a result. Finally there are the Hybrid Ferin which were made when the mage had perfected their curse and appear partially human with animal traits and are the strongest and most resilient of the three. |

The Pelted from Paradox were created by splicing genes from various animals into human genomes, technically making them a Human Subspecies (they share 99% of their genome with humans and are capable of interbreeding with them). They were originally designed as servants to humanity but after a number of demands for rights (and a scandal or two where a billionaire got knocked up by her "pet") they left Earth, then returned centuries later to invite humans into their Alliance. | |

Space Beasts has the Humanimals, who were created by humans to serve as slaves. The Humanimals all have mostly human forms and animalistic heads, since the scientists who created them nixed the idea of genetically engineering animals to be mostly or entirely indistinguishable from humans — after all, if the Humanimals looked too human, they would be accepted as such. They're still pretty humanlike, to the point of being able to interbreed with humans. | |

Island of Lost Souls, being an adaptation of The Island of Doctor Moreau, naturally has this as its premise. As in the novel, the Beast-Men are created by surgically modifying animals into human form, and most of them are too animalistic to pass for human. In a departure from the source material, Moreau succeeds in making an almost entirely human Panther Woman, Lota. Moreau's motivations are also changed; not content to merely make humans out of animals, Moreau now wants to see if his creations can breed with humans. | |

In Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead, as part of the backstory, American scientists were researching genetic modification in order to create Super Soldiers in case a cold war with China turned hot. Some scientists developed Super Serums that grant animal traits, although the Cataclysm prevented widespread usage of them. If you find or recreate the right kind of mutagens, you can become an example of this trope, although it's very risky. | |

The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996), being a Setting Update to the modern day, has Dr. Moreau use genetic engineering to give animals human traits. In a further departure from the novel, though most of the Beast-Men were originally animals, one of the females gives birth to a hybrid baby, showing that Moreau's modifications breed true. | |
