What Franken-creatures can you imagine making as we become adept at gene splicing?

It’s April Fools day and fun with critters time. What strange critters might gene splicing let us brew up? Imagine the fleet-footed, heavily-armored antedillo, bearing a mixture of characteristics of the antelope’s fleetness coupled with the armadillo’s armor. What a war horse a large antedillo would make.

Or how about facing the spines and teeth of the dreaded porcugator, which inherited the most fearsome characteristics of the alligator and porcupine that were merged in its DNA. A few of those swimming in the moat around your castle, and you’d be safe from all but the hardiest of intruders.

What strange creatures can you imagine, and what sort of portmanteau names would they bear? What interesting features might your pet hybrid have? What could your Franken-creature be put to good use doing? The goal is to achieve both a useful critter and a funny portmanteau for its name. Have a it, all you hybridized human Jellies.
