Although it exists, it is not alive - so what is this creature all about?
We again received inquiries about a topic that we had already had on the table in 2017
It's about the alleged discovery of a hybrid human-cat creature that is said to have been found in Malaysia, rumored to be on the border with the Sultanate of Pahang. To top it off, the mysterious creature is said to have been tested in a secret laboratory.
The article is supported with photos of the hybrid:
Can this be? Was this creature actually found?
However, the article also suggests that the Malaysian police deny this discovery and that it could possibly just be a silicone doll. The answer as to whether it is a living being is left open.

The author of the article already mentions the answer himself:
The fact check
It was made by the Italian artist Laira Maganuco . Her works can also be admired Etsy and Instagram The creations are obviously presented out of context by other sites to create a viral story that will generate clicks.
Such crosses between humans and animals are also extremely problematic from a scientific point of view. More about chimeras and hybrids here .
Result:
No mysterious creature has been discovered in Asia. The creature comes from Italy and was made from silicone by an artist.
So it is existing but not living art.
