      That would be magic! (not currently a goal of science) Is there someone you want to turn into a penguin? 😀

      It’s possible to create new species (not change existing animals) by mating two different existing species (like you do for dogs)… it would be a mix of both…but if you cross a Penguin with a human… you’d probably get some weird animal with short arms and legs, and with an incredible ability to swim long distances, and talk!
