      Despite the absence of any scientific proof, great numbers of people still cling to the deep-rooted belief that humans can breed with animals and produce offspring

      Actually no such breeding is possible between 2 different species

      Apparently, what has kept alive the belief that humans may be able to fertilize animals or that animals may be able to fertilize humans is the abundance of folklore, superstitions, legends and myths on the subject.
