He seems like... you know, an actual geneticist. So if these bodies end up being a bullshit combo of random human and animal parts, then his career is over. Because how could you not realize that after spending a year with the bodies?
If they are aliens, how do they have DNA in the first place? Let alone "70% known" - as you say? You are just throwing out words.
Also, his career is not over. Other scientists make spectacular claims on the side and it doesn't end their careers - for example, Dr. Michio Kaku.
The other thing is he didn't say anything controversial. The ancient DNA specimens get polluted and mixed over time as they get handled by lots of people so you get a cocktail of DNA specimens (viruses, people, animals, etc.)
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
