Hybrids are plants or animals that are the result of mixing two different species. These creatures are strange and rare, and are usually the result of man toying with nature.
Hybrid animals take the best traits from their mother and father, and that is why they are created to increase productivity.
Some of the weirdest hybrids out there are ones like the Liger, which is a cross between a lion and a tiger. The result is a lion with stripes. A liger is bigger than a lion because it doesn’t have the gene that limits growth. This is the biggest feline in the world! It can be up to 12 feet long!
Another strange one is the Tigon, which is a cross between a male tiger and female lion. In this case, the Tigon is small, because it haws twice as much of the gene that stops growth. These animals were raised and created in captivity and you would never see them in the wild (tigers live in Africa and Asia).
Some other cool hybrids are the Zebra-horse, the Leopion, which is a cross between a female lion and a leopard and the Bengali, which is a mix of house cat and bengali wildcat.
