Describe your Topic below: What are the limitations on creating a hybrid specimen? What are the processes with one would have to go through to try and create one.

Brainstorm what you know and what you would like to know:

to at least have a shot at breeding. For some hybrids are some differences between which species from which the mother or father is from depending. ||  ||< Why are there differences between hyrbids that are the same combination based on which parent species provided the father. ||

 * Background Research **

====There are multiple hybrids that have been created either on purpose, or accidentally, but always from human intervention. Ligers are probably one of the most profound and well known version of a hybrid animal. Ligers are the result of a Male lion and a Female tiger. They tend to show more semblance to lions, though have some classic tiger stripes on their hindquarters. Tigons are similar, but are the result of a male tiger and female lion. As ligers do, they tend to exhibit more traits from the fathers species. Both hybrids are looked down upon by some scientists being that they are not a natural species. There was a possibility that some ligers may have been born in the wild when the territory of the animals would overlap. Problems that they would face is either animal rejecting the other as a mate, multiple birth defects usually resulting in death of the cub soon after birth, or a general avoidance of each other in order to avoid injury.====

====All members of a genus share the same number of chromosomes. This prohibits the probable of having an unpaired chromosome. Though the unnatural blending of the different species may lead to complications with the cells and result in cancerous growths.====
