In this paper I explore some of the moral issues that could emerge from the creation of human-nonhuman chimeras (HNH-chimeras) capable of human gamete production and human pregnancy. First I explore whether there is a cogent argument against the creation of HNH-chimeras that could produce human gametes. I conclude that so far there is none, and that in fact there is at least one good moral reason for producing such types of creatures. Afterwards I explore some of the moral problems that could emerge from the fact that a HNH-chimera could become pregnant with a human conceptus. I focus on two sets of problems: problems that would arise by virtue of the fact that a human is gestated by a nonhuman creature, and problems that would emerge from the fact that such pregnancies could affect the health of the HNH-chimera.
在本文中，我探讨了一些可能因创造出能够产生人类配子并实现人类怀孕的人类-非人类嵌合体（HNH-嵌合体）而出现的道德问题。首先，我探讨是否存在一个有说服力的论点来反对创造能够产生人类配子的HNH-嵌合体。我得出的结论是，到目前为止还没有，事实上，创造这类生物至少有一个很好的道德理由。之后，我探讨了HNH-嵌合体可能怀有人类胚胎这一事实可能引发的一些道德问题。我关注两组问题：一组是由于人类由非人类生物孕育而产生的问题，另一组是这类怀孕可能影响HNH-嵌合体健康而出现的问题。
