BBC News | SCI/TECH | Zebra hybrid is cute surprise
A Shetland pony on a UK farm has surprised its owners by giving birth to a half-zebra foal. The hybrid animal, now a week old, appears healthy and is bouncing around its paddock at the Eden Ostrich World, at Langwathby Hall Farm, near Penrith, Cumbria. The owners of the pony, called Tilly, had no idea she was pregnant when they bought her from a wildlife park, where she had been kept in a field with a male zebra. "She was fairly fat when we received her and we thought that she was getting fatter," Karen Pete said. "It really was a bit of a shock when we got up one morning and we saw the foal that was there. We realised then what had happened." Genetic difference A cross between a horse and a zebra is rare but by no means unheard of. The Cumbrian foal would probably be called a zorse, although some commentators have suggested it might better be termed a zetland. Hybrids are an interesting curiosity. Hybrids are not easy to create, however. A horse has 64 chromosomes; the zebra has 44.
Hybrids Between Leopards and Lions
Leopons are the offspring of a male leopard and a lioness. They have been bred in zoos in India, Japan, Germany and Italy (this latter was more correctly a Lipard - offspring of a lion and leopardess). Karl Hagenbeck, who produced many different hybrids, recorded the birth of leopons at the Hamburg Tierpark in Germany, but none survived to maturity. A leopon "flat study skin and skull" from the Kolhapur Zoo in India (bred in 1910) was donated to the British Museum of Natural History by Lt Col FW Wodehouse of the Junior United Services sometime before 1940. The leopon is documented in R I Pocock's letter to The Field of 2nd November 1912 and the 1913-14 Vol. of the Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society. "So far as I am aware there is no published description of a hybrid lion and leopard. The most successful and famous leopon programme was at Koshien Hanshin Park in Nishinomiya City, Japan. In terms of size, the leopons take after the lioness mother and are larger than leopards.
