The author seems to be a well-established scientist, and the arguments are quite plausible, given that this level of hybridization actually could be possible. What I find amazing (based on the article) is that hybridization hasn't really been researched very well, and that hybrids aren't actually infertile, on the contrary to popular belief.
As the article points out, this indeed sounds as ridiculous as Darwin's proposal that humans descend from apes.
