18 Hybrid Animals That Are Hard To Believe Actually Exist

ADVERTISEMENT

You might have probably heard about the most common animal hybrid between a female horse and a male donkey, called a mule, but did you know there are more of these mixed animals? Though this kind of species and breeds crossing does not usually appear in nature, with the intervention of humans, we now have zonkeys, ligers, and Savannah cats. These animals are typically infertile, with some exceptions, such as the coywolf (not to be confused with a coy wolf), a mix of a coyote and a wolf, and can further reproduce.

Though the internet is full of photoshopped images of strange creatures, this list is full of absolutely real and amazing animals. What does the future hold, with advances in genetic engineering and cloning? Only time will tell! Keep reading to find out more about these weird animals.

(h/t: ohmyimaginaryfriend)

Liger ( Male Lion + Female Tiger)

(Image credits: )

Although there are rumors of wild Ligers, as far as we know, they exist only in captivity where they are deliberately bred. They grow to be very large very quickly, and are the biggest cats in the world. Hercules, the largest non-obese liger, is the largest living cat on Earth, weighing over 410 kg (904 lb). (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Liger)

Tigon (Male Tiger + Female Lion)

(Image credits: )

How far can you go? Did you know that Ligers and Tigons also reproduce? We’ll leave it up to you to figure out what their offspring are called! (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Tigon)

Zonkey (Zebra + Donkey)

(Image credits: firenze.repubblica.it)

A variation of the aforementioned zebroid. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebroid)

Jaglion (Male Jaguar + Female Lion)

(Image credits: bearcreeksanctuary.com)

A rare combination. These photos are of Jahzara and Tsunami, born at Ontario, Canada’s, Bear Creek Wildlife Sanctuary. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Panthera_hybrid)

Geep (Goat + Sheep)

(Image credits: My Petting Zoo)

Another rare animal, as the offspring of goat and sheep pairings are usually stillborn. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Geep)

Grolar Bear (Polar Bear + Brown Bear)

(Image credits: dpa)

Also called “pizzly bears,” most grolar bears live in zoos, although there have been a few confirmed sightings in the wild. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Grizzly polar_bear_hybrid)

Coywolf (Coyote +Wolf)

(Image credits: Anne Marie Fraser)

Coyotes and eastern wolves only diverged some 150-300,000 years ago, and the two are able to produce offspring. The resulting Coywolves share many behavioral characteristics, and are between the coyote and wolf in size. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Coywolf)

Zebroid (Zebra + Any Other Equine)

ADVERTISEMENT

(Image credits: panoramio.com)

Darwin was one of the first to mention the Zebroid, an unruly animal that is hard to tame, and is more aggressive than a horse. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebroid)

Savannah Cat (Domestic Cat + Serval)

(Image credits: nitewindes.com)

These beautiful creatures have been described as dog-like, enjoying games of fetch, wagging their tails, and having no fear of water. They are extremely expensive.  (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Savannah_cat)

Wholphin (Male False Killer Whale + Female Bottlenose Dolphin)

(Image credits: sbingham.seabird)

False killer whales actually come from the same family as dolphins, but despite this, they are extremely rare. Only one wholphin exists in captivity.  (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Wholphin)

Beefalo (Buffalo + Cow)

(Image credits: beefalo.bandcamp.com)

Also called “cattalo,” they’ve been around since 1800, and are heartier than cattle and do less ecological damage when grazing. Unfortunately, as a result of the breeding, it’s believed that only four wild buffalo herds exist that aren’t contaminated by cow genes. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Beefalo)

ADVERTISEMENT

Hinny (Female Donkey + Male Horse)

(Image credits: unknown)

Slightly smaller than mules, they’re also much less common. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinny)

Narluga (Narwhal + Beluga)

(Image credits: unknown)

Extremely rare, although there has recently been an increase in sighting in the North Atlantic.

Cama (Camel + Llama)

(Image credits: craigwright)

First produced at the Camel Reproduction Centre in Dubai in 1998 via artificial insemination, they were created for their fur and use of pack animals. Only 5 were ever made. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Cama)

Dzo (Cow + Wild Yak)

(Image credits: tomato umlaut)

Prized in Tibet and Mongolia for their meat and quantity of milk they produce, they are larger and stronger than both cows and yaks. As with the beefalo, however, it’s believed that both animal breeds in the region now have contaminated genes. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Dzo)

Leopon (Male Leopard + Female Lion)

ADVERTISEMENT

(Image credits: unknown)

These beautiful animals have only ever produced in captivity. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Leopon)

Mulard (Mallard + Muscovy Duck)

(Image credits: prodejdrubeze.cz)

Bred for food, the mulard is unable to produce offspring. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulard)

Żubroń (Cow + European Bison)

(Image credits: wikimedia.org)

Stronger and more resistant to disease, they were initially thought to be a possible replacement for cattle. Now, only a small herd exists in Bialowieski National Park in Poland. (source: wikipedia.org/wiki/Żubron)

What I think is people should stop breeding animals that normally would not breed in nature. The babies that turn out well may be sold or exhibited, and those that don't wind up at sanctuaries if there is room, or dig neglected, or dying. There's a reason most of these are "found" only in a captivity.

Im dissapointed, the author of this post should educate themselves. I see well known actual animals as the Jacobs sheep, a bison, a mule, a black panther and a few cattle and poultry breeds resulting form selective breeding. Plus the tiger lion is obviously photoshopped. If there are indeed any real hybrids they were bred in captivity and none of them are able to produce offsprings, this is a precaution of the mother nature against different species interbreeding. So even the comments under the pictures are pure nonsense.

Although yes, this post is terrible, tiger/ lion combinations are actually possible because they are genetically similar enough to produce and offspring. They are only found in captivity because their natural ranges don't cross. Would these species mate in the wild? Probably not.

Coywolves are not just bred in captivity - there are many wild ones in the east, from Maine to South Carolina. They are part wolf, part large dog and part coyote and have been around for a while and therefore are spreading. It's true - one was just spotted a few weeks ago at the Savannah River Plant in SC. You can look it up.

Some years ago in Lynwood, Ca, my daughter and I was on an early morning walk when we saw a cat run across. This cat had the body of a cat and its paws was of a rabbit. We were totally shocked. We called it a CABBIT, because we knew that it was a crossbree when we saw it. It's not good playing with Gods creatures.

While they're always intersting enough, I don't think we should b creating unnatural hybrids of normal animal species.They're oftentimes, no everytime unhealthy and never look good togther. It's wrong, but I guess science doesn't care about morality.

I never believe in evolution, but, I always new that mixtures is the way of producing new species, just because, we were not there to see it, do not mean that it did not happen, as long is a male and a female, things can happen. For me the platypus has been a perfect example, they look part duck and beaver, both live in water. I even told this to a famous scientist and his students, they told me that never can happen, they gave me the example of the horse and the donkey, which is the Yegua, it do not reproduce, just because of this mixture, they could not admit it is possible. I am so happy, to see how much is in front of my eyes and proofed that I was right. I do not need to be a scientific to comprehend life and his formation.

Platypus are not a mixture of different kinds of animals, but a specie a category of their own. For heaven's sake, there is no way that it's part duck and beaver! It is a mammal, that lays eggs, yes it does (only females do though). It is a very rare left over of the Cretaceous period.

The photo of the grolar bear is just a dirty polar bear. The hybrid does exist but it exhibits more grizzly-like qualities. Before copying a misinformed reddit post, please check the facts!

Im dissapointed, the author of this post should educate themselves. I see well known actual animals as the Jacobs sheep, a bison, a mule, a black panther and a few cattle and poultry breeds resulting form selective breeding. Plus the tiger lion is obviously photoshopped. If there are indeed any real hybrids they were bred in captivity and none of them are able to produce offsprings, this is a precaution of the mother nature against different species interbreeding. So even the comments under the pictures are pure nonsense.

Although yes, this post is terrible, tiger/ lion combinations are actually possible because they are genetically similar enough to produce and offspring. They are only found in captivity because their natural ranges don't cross. Would these species mate in the wild? Probably not.

Coywolves are not just bred in captivity - there are many wild ones in the east, from Maine to South Carolina. They are part wolf, part large dog and part coyote and have been around for a while and therefore are spreading. It's true - one was just spotted a few weeks ago at the Savannah River Plant in SC. You can look it up.

Some years ago in Lynwood, Ca, my daughter and I was on an early morning walk when we saw a cat run across. This cat had the body of a cat and its paws was of a rabbit. We were totally shocked. We called it a CABBIT, because we knew that it was a crossbree when we saw it. It's not good playing with Gods creatures.

While they're always intersting enough, I don't think we should b creating unnatural hybrids of normal animal species.They're oftentimes, no everytime unhealthy and never look good togther. It's wrong, but I guess science doesn't care about morality.

Donkey's aren't sterile. The mule - which is a horse and donkey hybrid - is sterile. I believe the Zonkey's (which I've heard called Zedonks) are also sterile.

I never believe in evolution, but, I always new that mixtures is the way of producing new species, just because, we were not there to see it, do not mean that it did not happen, as long is a male and a female, things can happen. For me the platypus has been a perfect example, they look part duck and beaver, both live in water. I even told this to a famous scientist and his students, they told me that never can happen, they gave me the example of the horse and the donkey, which is the Yegua, it do not reproduce, just because of this mixture, they could not admit it is possible. I am so happy, to see how much is in front of my eyes and proofed that I was right. I do not need to be a scientific to comprehend life and his formation.

Platypus are not a mixture of different kinds of animals, but a specie a category of their own. For heaven's sake, there is no way that it's part duck and beaver! It is a mammal, that lays eggs, yes it does (only females do though). It is a very rare left over of the Cretaceous period.
