What if you take a frog & a cow & put them in the same room? Would they do it up? Would they make a frow or a cog?

No. They have to be of the same genus. Like with a liger, lions and tigers are both in the Pathera genus but are different species. That in mind, you couldn't even mix a tiger with a cougar or a leopard, even though they are all in the same family.

Mixing things up

Ligers, tigons and grolar bears, oh my! Take a look at some of these otherworldly hybrid animals and you'll realize the possibilities are endless. Though they rarely occur in nature, individuals from different but closely related species do occasionally mate, and the result is a biological hybrid — an offspring that shares traits from both parent species. Here are 11 bizarre, but truly unique half-breeds. (Text: Bryan Nelson)
