The naming of hybrid animals depends on the sex and species of the parents. The father giving the first half of his species' name and the mother the second half of hers. (I.e. a pizzly bear has a polar bear father and grizzly bear mother whereas a grolar bear's parents would be reversed.)
A grizzly–polar-bear-hybrid (also named grolar bear, pizzly bear, zebra bear, [1] [2] grizzlar, or nanulak) is a rare ursid hybrid that has occurred both in captivity and in the wild. In 2006, the occurrence of this hybrid in nature was confirmed by testing the DNA of a unique-looking bear who had been shot near Sachs Harbour , Northwest ...

A Wholphin. The first recorded wholphin was born in a Tokyo SeaWorld in 1981; he died after 200 days. [4]The first wholphin in the United States and the first to survive was Kekaimalu, born at Sea Life Park in Hawaii on May 15, 1985; her name means "from the peaceful ocean". [4]
The existence of narlugas had been hypothesized for decades before its discovery. There are 20 known cetacean hybrids in existence, with 7 of those occurring only in captivity. [3] In 1990, the researcher Mads Peter Heide-Jørgensen spoke to an Inuk hunter who'd captured an unusual hybrid animal that had both beluga and narwhal anatomy. He ...
A feral pig is a domestic pig that has escaped or been released into the wild, and is living more or less as a wild animal, or one that is descended from such animals. [2] Zoologists generally exclude from the feral category animals that, although captive, were genuinely wild before they escaped. [ 3 ]
Even the tiniest pet dogs can trace their ancestry back to wolves and, even though they are domesticated, dogs still have some of their wild animal traits. Dogs bite around 4 million people each ...
The humanzee (sometimes chuman, manpanzee or chumanzee) is a hypothetical hybrid of chimpanzee and human, thus a form of human–animal hybrid.Serious attempts to create such a hybrid were made by Soviet biologist Ilya Ivanovich Ivanov in the 1920s, [1] and possibly by researchers in China in the 1960s, though neither succeeded.
