Re-activation of dormant genes in humans can result in babies being born with tails

Nice piece. I once read a documentary that states that reactivation of dormant genes can cause subsequent generations to pick up traits that were sidelined by the process of evolution. Example; the warewolf syndrome.

Sort:  

It makes me wonder what sort of foolish trends will arise when parents are legally allowed to genetically engineer their offspring.

Exactly my point.
