I would select the cheetah and the hummingbird to create a new "Super Creature". The cheetah possesses incredible running speed, while the hummingbird has exceptional flight agility. By combining their DNA, we could potentially create a creature with both the speed and agility, making it an ultimate predator. However, a potential risk could be the compatibility of the two organisms' DNA and whether their characteristics could be successfully combined.
