Ballistic Squid
This species of alien mollusk (about the size and general shape of the largest Terran giant Pacific octopus) shows obvious signs of genetic tampering; it absolutely should, considering that it can launch itself out of the water and travel about a hundred feet up before gravity takes control again. This is not a survival mechanism; Ballistic Squid can survive the experience if it lands in the water again, but if it hits anything metal the Squid’s body pulps itself. More genetic engineering, probably.
