Ligers - the largest cat in the world today. The biggest liger is the Hercules of interactive theme park "Jungle Island". In male-Leagrove, with rare exceptions, almost no mane and unlike lions Ligers can and love to swim. Another feature Leagrove is that females Leagrove (ligritsy) can produce offspring, which is unusual for hybrids.
Tigon (male + female tiger lion)
Currently tigrolvy not as familiar as his "counterpart" Ligers, although in the late XIX - early XX centuries was the opposite situation. Tigrolvy never found in nature as tigers and lions are now different habitats. Normally less tigrolvy lions and tigers and weigh about 150 kg.

Grolar (polar Grizzly Bear +) 27,412,076
Polar bear and grizzly bear are genetically very similar, and can produce fertile offspring. Most of these hybrids living in zoos, although there were several instances of seeing them in the wild.
Coywolf (+ coyote wolf) 49,658,447
Koyvolk - resistant natural hybrid coyote or any other North American species of wolves. Externally similar to the large coyote or red wolf. Koyvolkov is difficult to distinguish from the "pure" red and eastern wolves, which themselves look like a cross between a coyote and gray wolf; as well as the small size of the gray wolves with ryzhinkoy in color.

Wholphin (small black male + female orca dolphin kind of dolphin)
He became the first hybrid Wholphin named Kekaimalu, born in Marine Park in Hawaii. It was a female, who was able to have offspring. She gave birth to a cub at a very young age. The kid died a few days after birth. However, in 1991 Kekaimalu has given birth again, her daughter was given the name Pohaykealoha. Within two years, she cared for her cub, but nursed him. Pohaykealoha died at the age of nine. In 2004, there was a third cub. Thus, we now live in captivity only two instances.
Beefalo
In the 70s Beef bred more than six thousand ranches across America. Since then, their popularity has declined significantly, but the meat of this animal have loyal fans.
Hinny (male + female horse donkey)
With the exception of the head with short ears hinny looks a little different from a donkey, except that his voice sounds a bit different. Mules are bred in the Mediterranean countries and Asia. However, since they are inferior mules for performance and endurance, much rarer than mules.

It is extremely rare, although recently there has been an increase in the North Atlantic nablyudeyny.
Cama (+ Camel Lama)
Both animals belong to the family of camelids, but naturally have different habitats.
In animal reproduction center in Dubai in 1998, a hybrid born male named Rama, and in 2002 - a female named Camila. Animals are the offspring of female and male llamas dromedary. Fertilization was artificial. The opposite combination has not led to success.
Dzo (wild yak cow +) 64,157,553
Dzo is found in Mongolia and Tibet and Nepal. It is used in agriculture. Such hybrids are larger and stronger than yaks and local bulls which makes them ideal pack animals for transportation of equipment for climbers who intend to climb Mount Everest.
Leopon (male + female leopard lion) 21,278,990

Mulard (Muscovy duck duck + Home) 20,439,255
Mulard not found in the wild due to different geographic area of common mallard (Eurasia) and wild musk duck (South America), are displayed only on the initiative of the person to rectify the shortcomings of these rocks.
Zubron (+ cow bison) 64,921,631
Bison, a European forest bison, threatened with extinction, but gets a chance to survive thanks to the efforts of biologists, has launched a project for the return of the bison in the forest. We can say that zubron - European response Biff.
