15 Scary Hybrid Animals that Actually Exist

When you deviate from the world of cute and cuddly animals, things can get pretty hairy! Lions and tigers and bears, oh my? Well, how about a beast that contains the DNA of all three? And we’re not talking about the manticores or chimeras of myth. We’re talking about the real deal! Dr. Frankenstein and Dr. Moreau would be proud of what modern scientists have cooked up in their labs. So join us for today’s video, where we look at 15 scary hybrid animals!

😡☹️ Why do humans have to mess everything up?!!

[jajafeez]

Your Scientists Were So Preoccupied With Whether Or Not They Could, They Didn’t Stop To Think If They Should - ian malcom

[krystallos]

The sad fact is that those hybrids are not healthy. It’s not meant to happen, but humans wanted to try it just because so they exist. It’s actual cruel to breed these hybrids.

[maureentuohy]

Why in the world do people do this crap! It's so dangerous and cruel. It is truly disturbing.

[elsabiron]

Just because we can, doesn’t mean that we should

All the big cats are most beautiful in the forms that they occur naturally !

[andreabenson]

Leave it to a human...one of these days their gonna make something that they wished they had never messed with.

[Neyreyan]

In short: most of these are categorised as animal abuse and the people responsible should be jailed

[kaakrepwhatever]

"Male cow" is an oxymoron, since "cow" is the female of the cattle species. "Bull" is the correct term.

[kasiakarewicz]

I am asking WHY? If we know that most of cross-overs are short living, suffering genetic problems... Why we are playing god, making creatures to suffer and live in captivity?

[tonyg]

I've seen a liger at The Big Cat Rescue(the place Carole Baskins owns). It was huge and looked miserable. Very small enclosure too for such a massive animal. In fact, all the big cats looked miserable. That place was depressing.

[rebelred]

This is so cruel. To selfishly create a hybrid animal that you know will be rejected by both species just to satisfy your curiosity is such disgusting behavior. These scientists should feel ashamed of themselves.

[zebedeemadness]

Green sea slug isn't a hybrid situation, it's a symbiotic relationship, Corals and Sea jellies have the same kind of relationship with Algae.

[IKEMENOsakaman]

Sooner or later, it's gonna lead to a Pokemon! XD

[Egyptiandragon]

thank you for acknowledging the dark side of some of these hybrids ie liger's mismatched unhealthy health and the geep's genetic dead end-ness

[robindew]

Mankind isn't supposed to mess with God's design of any being he created.

[carlamoore]

It is cruel what they've done to a tiger and the lion just to create some freakish creature that people will pay a lot of money to see. If people only knew how much the animal that they created for some freakish zoo character, they wouldn't pay money to see it

[EsiaAF]

Nothing is safe from the human scientists 😢

[AKHWJST]

Science messin' where it shouldn't.

[ayimmali]

Then what about Donkey and the Female Dragon from Shrek?Its worth a mention!🤣😂🤣😂
