“Discover the Shocking Truth Behind Nature’s Most Unbelievable Animal Hybrids You Never Knew Existed!”
This is because zebroids are usually infertile due to an odd number of chromosomes in their DNA which disrupts a key process in reproduction. It’s most likely they will never be able to bear young, although they can still live a long and healthy life.
The species wouldn’t fare well in wild herds
This zebroid hybrid is a cross between a male zebra and a female horse. The animal looks more like the mother’s species with identifiable stripes from the father’s species.
This particular zebroid lives at the Mount Kenya animal orphanage in Kenya. It’s not likely that these creatures would be able to survive outside of captivity.
A goat and sheep can reproduce in rare circumstances
When goats and sheep are kept in captivity together, like the ones at this petting zoo, there is the possibility that the two species can breed. However, it is extremely rare.
Sheep and goats are popularly boarded together in the same pastures around the world but it’s highly unlikely they will mate.
Geep are often stillborn
Because of the genetic differences between goats and sheep, the offspring of are usually stillborn. In some very rare cases, the geep hybrid is born alive and grows for a few years.
However, they are likely to have much shorter lifespans and suffer from severe health complications, if they survive their own birth.
