Title is self explanatory, post pictures or videos of animal hybrids. Here's one I just heard of today: a waterbuck-red lechwe ( Kobus ellipsiprymnus x Kobus leche) hybrid. Here he is with a full-blooded waterbuck (that may or may not be his half brother). And here he is confronted by a pack of wild dogs ( link->). This video-> may be the same incident.

Not an actual hybrid produced here, but this female leopard was filmed displaying typical oestrus behavior towards a male lion ( link to explanatory image->). The lion was not interested and a few minutes later both animals left. What makes this interaction even more bizarre is that this occurred in the wild. Leopard-lion hybridization tends to be a captivity thing, and when the animals are confined in close quarters, it's more likely for a lioness to mate with a male leopard, due to the smaller size discrepancy. In case you're wondering what an actual lion-leopard (especially male leopard x female lion) hybrid looks like.

Ligers are more famous their size but I think tigon's look a lot cooler.
