Selective breeding is quite different from genetic manipulation...and yet even with selective breeding, man is not smart enough to understand the consequences of such activity.
The hubris of scientists knows no bounds...

Sheep breeder guy wasn't using CRISPR, he just bred large sheep. Now he's in jail.
Here is what the article said:
He "clone(ed) endangered mountain sheep embryos and use them to breed a hybrid species"
That is not selective breeding (where you breed a poodle and a labrador)--that's genetic manipulation.
