  1. The North American red wolf (Canis rufus) is believed to be a hybrid of the gray wolf (Canis lupus) and the coyote (Canis latrans), however there's a lot of debate over what the origins of this species are and how recently hybridization might have occurred.

    The reason I think the red wolf is an interesting animal to study is that apparently a population bottleneck (due to habitat loss and competition for resources from the larger and more assertive Gray Wolf) is what led to hybridization with coyotes. In other words, had red wolves not bred with coyotes they would almost certainly be extinct now.

    These are beautiful, intelligent animals. The pack I had a chance to observe in a zoo seemed much less fearful of humans than the adjacent pack of gray wolves. On several occasions they attempted to engage me in play even though they were inside an enclosure and I was outside that enclosure.


  2. Mules are probably the most well know hybrid.

    Zeedonks, Zorses, Tigons, and Lingers are also good.
