Beefalo constitutes a hybrid offspring of domestic cattle (Bos taurus), usually a male in managed breeding programs, and the American bison (Bison bison), usually a female in managed breeding programs. [1] [2] The breed was created to combine the characteristics of both animals for beef production.
Żubroń are hybrids of domestic cattle and wisents.. A bovid hybrid is the hybrid offspring of members of two different species of the bovid family. There are 143 extant species of bovid, and the widespread domestication of several species has led to an interest in hybridisation for the purpose of encouraging traits useful to humans, and to preserve declining populations.
The yakalo is a cross of the yak (Bos grunniens) and the American bison (Bison bison, known as a buffalo in North America).It was produced by hybridisation experiments in the 1920s, when crosses were made between yak bulls and both pure bison cows and bison–cattle hybrid cows. [1]

Beefalo, a cross of an American bison and a domestic cow. This is a fertile breed; this, along with mitochondrial DNA evidence, [11] has led bison to occasionally be classified in the genus Bos. Zubron, a hybrid between wisent (European bison) and domestic cow. Yakalo, a hybrid between a bison and a yak.
Żubroń (/ ˈ ʒ uː b r ɒ nj /; Polish: żubroń [ˈʐubrɔɲ]) is a hybrid of domestic cattle and wisent.The wisent (żubr in Polish) [1] is the European bison; hence, the żubroń is analogous to the American beefalo.

The American Breed is an American bovid hybrid of cattle with a small percentage of American Bison blood. It was developed in the 1950s by a New Mexico rancher looking for beef cattle which could survive on poor fodder in the arid Southwest. It is one of the few cattle breeds with any known Bison influence, another being the Beefalo. [2]
