6. Beefalo
The name of this thing is fantastic. A beefalo is the product of a domestic cow and an American bison. It is a created breed and those who made it did so in the name of beef production. In appearance and genetics, beefalo are mainly cattle, and roughly 37.5% of their genes are bison. Those with higher percentages of bison genes are more often called bison hybrids instead of beefalo. Beefalo meat is lower in cholesterol and fat than the average beef from cattle, and it’s also known to be more flavorful, nutritious, and tender, as well as having 4 to 6% more protein. The animals themselves grow faster, tolerate extreme temperatures better, and do less damage to rangeland than cattle, and it won’t be surprising if we see a lot more of these in the future.



5. Cama
These animals are a hybrid made from a female llama and a male dromedary camel and have been made in Dubai at the Camel Reproduction Centre through artificial insemination. Llamas have fairly decent wool production, but the aim with cross-breeding these two animals is to create an animal capable of an even higher output of the fabric. Artificial insemination is needed when crossing the two animals as the dromedary camel can sometimes weigh as much as six times more than a llama. By April 2008, five camas had been born, with the first, a male, born on January 14, 1998.


4. Dzo
This oddly named animal is a hybrid of domestic cattle and a yak. The name dzo usually refers to a male hybrid, whereas female hybrids are known as dzomo or zhom. These, combining their English names, are sometimes called yattle, and yattle are normally stronger and larger than both cattle and yaks. Dzo are infertile creatures, but, surprisingly, dzomo are fertile. This means the two cannot mate, but a dzomo can be backcrossed, which means it can mate with one of its parents or another creature genetically similar to its parent. This also means that many yak or cattle that are thought to be pure may carry some of the others’ genetic material.



3. Leopon
This animals parent animals can probably be guessed based on some of the other animals we’ve already seen on this list! A leopon is the product of mating a female lion or lioness with a male leopard! The body looks very similar to that of a leopard, but the head is very close to that of a lion. The first-ever documented leopon came into being way back in 1910 in Kolhapur, India and it was first described by Reginald Innes Pockock in 1912. Their spots are brown instead of black, and they have tufted tails and typically combine features of both the leopard and lion. But they do climb as leopards do and they enjoy playing in the water, so they seem to take more after their leopard ancestors in personality.


2. Zubron
A zubron is what you get when you cross a wisent with domestic cattle. For those of you who don’t know, a wisent is a European bison, which basically makes the zubron ****ogous to our own American beefalo. Zubron wasn’t just given as the name for this animal; in 1969, a competition was held by Przekroj, a Polish magazine, who then chose it as the winning name for the bison/cow hybrid. It was first created in 1847 by Leopold Walicki, although it’s been speculated that it may have appeared before that but was undocumented. They were even considered as a possible replacement for domestic cattle following the First World War as they were thought of as a cheap and hardy animal. Zubrons are hefty, weighing between 1,790 and 2,600 lbs and are disease resistant, durable, and can tolerate harsh weather conditions.
