Postwar uses for morphing

[Tim Bruening]

Morphing uses:

I: Saving endangered species.  Acquire the male of the species, then morph it to mate with the females!

IA: Donate sperm while in that morph!

II: Search and rescue.  Morph bloodhounds to sniff out missing persons.  Morph birds of prey for air searches.  Morph dolphins for ocean searches or to rescue the drowning.  Morph small animals to reach trapped persons through small spaces.  Morph gorillas for heavy lifting.

III. Explorations of the ocean, Antarctica, and other difficult regions.

IV: Morph small animals when your space ship is about to take off!

V: Morph gorillas and pedal on stationary bikes to generate electricity.

VI: Have gravely injuried persons morph to heal their injuries.

VII: Morph Yeerks to help with brain surgery.

But I expect a plague of identity thefts!

I suggest using battle morphs to fight poachers.

I am not familiar with the ivory trade. But I do wonder morphing could help protect the animals, without killing the trade.

Someone morphs and elephant, tusk removed, demorph, remove an elephant that still has tusks. You have a limitless supply, and that goes for any animal resource that you don't need to kill it for. I don't know if elephants and rhinos have to be killed to get the prize, or if that's just the practice (Granted I imagine a morpher would not want to be conscious when someone is collecting their tusks, so you'd have to find a way to knock them out for under 2 hours)

I always thought Cassie would become a zoologist, using morphing to get closer to animals than anyone else could.

[Tim Bruening]

Morph a person with a rare blood type, then donate blood.

Morph a person whose kidney type is urgently needed, then donate a kidney, then demorph.

I'm not sure how long surgery takes, but doing everything within 2 hours sounds like a short timeframe.

[DinosaurNothlit]

These are all awesome ideas.  I don't think I even have anything to add to the list.

hmmm, the surguries might take over 2 hours

I'm not sure how long surgery takes, but doing everything within 2 hours sounds like a short timeframe.

A big part of the reason surgeries take so long, though, is that the doctors have to be careful not to inflict any kind of permanent damage on the person being surgeried upon.  If they can morph, though, who cares?  Just start hacking away at their organs and hope they can still demorph before the blood loss catches up with them. 

Oh wait I thought of another one.  Morphing to help with surgery.  Hork-bajir for amputations, small animals (with disinfected paws/claws/limbs of course) for delicate surgeries where human hands are too big, and I've read that certain species of dog can actually smell cancer.

[DinosaurNothlit]

Not everything gets cured by morphing, though.  Genetic conditions don't.  And I don't think cancer would, either, since cancer is caused by genetic mutations in cells that cause them to go rogue.  Morphing doesn't fix anything genetic, so a person with cancer would still have cancer after morphing.  At least, I think so.  The questions about what morphing does or doesn't fix can be a little blurry sometimes.

[Tim Bruening]

Morph Hork Bajir to chop down trees.

[Tim Bruening]

Morph into bees to pollinate crops.

[Dylan]

Morph into bees to pollinate crops.

Morphing bugs like Bees and Ants would be horrible

[Tim Bruening]

Morph into bees to pollinate crops.

Morphing bugs like Bees and Ants would be horrible

Why?  Why would morphing bees to pollinate crops be horrible?  Would it be immoral or simply ugly?

[Dylan]

Bees are like ants. They are hive minded. The expirinces with other Hive minded incects (Ants,Termites,Bees) all ended bad.

-Morphing animals capable of long distance travel(high endurance) such as ducks, wolves to travel when other transport methods are unavailable.

-Morphing predator birds to see things far away/in bad conditions(such as little light)

-Morphing animals to explore places, where human nor robot can not go

-Morphing octopus/calmar if there are underwater jobs to do and/or require a lot of arms

-Morphing pretty much anything, in pure selffish way(to experience being different animal, having different senses and so on). Possibly also as to give different view to life, to reduce stress
edit: Checked the "Spell Check" thingy, 2 minor mistakes. Interesting tool

I like that idea, it would make traveling easier.
