Cinnamon Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 http://www.hemmy.net/2006/06/19/top-10-hybrid-animals/ I thought this might interest or amuse some of you. These are all hybrid animals,some are cute,some are ugly but they are all really interesting (I think ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 nice photos... I've been working on some more radical hybrids in my garden shed... the Polar Tiger: The insectopotomas: The monkey-flamingo-lizard: Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Phil - you're mad! My cousin who lives on the North Minnesota/Canada border has a wolf dog - beautiful, and very well trained. Perhaps not a bad choice considering he gets baby black bears on his bird table! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 Phil,you are as mad as a bag of wet hens Lesley,it took me a second to realise thet the baby black bears don't fly onto the bird table.Another hybrid maybe ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 the baby black bear-hybrids climb up onto the bird tables... it's the bison-hybrids that fly... Phil (sermon day!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheilaz Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Phil (sermon day!) Is it Friday already? Or is it still Thursday & you're starting it early? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 starting early on account of very busy weekend - and sister coming over from canada with her family.... Phil (but not getting very far yet!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilaz Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 How exciting! The sister's visit I mean, not the sermon. What's the reading, do you base your sermon around that, or topical events, or both? We can help give you ideas. This may seem off topic, but it's a hybrid topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 Very good Bear/Bird Phil,but I pictured it more like the monkeys from The Wizard of Oz....you know with little wings sprouting from their backs Minus the red & gold waistcoats though,of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 what's a labaradoodle? is it like a wolfaradoodle? or is it more like a mongreladoodle? Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are all hybrid animals,some are cute,some are ugly but they are all really interesting (I think ) sorry to have hijacked your thread, Sarah.. - getting back to your post... there are some others aswell - presumably outside their top ten.. there's the geep (goat/sheep) http://www.greenapple.com/~jorp/amzanim/cross08a.htm and there's the peacchick (hen/peacock) http://www.greenapple.com/~jorp/amzanim/cross21a.htm the beefallo (bison/cow) http://www.greenapple.com/~jorp/amzanim/cross05a.htm and the rather sad-looking red/grey kangaroo http://www.greenapple.com/~jorp/amzanim/cross19a.htm oh - and don't forget the scary-looking human/chimpanzee http://tinyurl.com/fkleb or the very scary monkey/warthog http://tinyurl.com/6bx8v Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 A cross between a Labrador and giant Poodle, which is just inches away from beign recognised as a seperate breed of dog. Very common in Australia used for herding work. Apparently they have all the best characteristics of both breeds. I meet one on my walk most mornings and he's such a happy chappie (the dog)...

Guest Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 what a gorgeous looking dog... chief characteristic of labrador: stupid... chief characteristic of poodle: bonkers... errrmm.. all of which reminds me of the following: New canine crossbreeds: Collie + Lhasa Apso Collapso, a dog that folds up for easy transport Bloodhound + Borzoi Bloody Bore, a dog that's not much fun Pointer + Setter Poinsetter, a traditional Christmas pet Kerry Blue Terrier + Skye Terrier Blue Skye, a dog for visionaries Pekingnese + Lhasa Apso Peekasso, an abstract dog Labrador Retriever + Curly Coated Retriever Lab Coat Retriever, the choice of research scientists Malamute + Pointer Moot Point, owned by....oh, well, it doesn't matter anyway Collie + Malamute Commute, a dog that travels to work Bull Terrier + "Ooops, word censored!"zu Bull "Ooops, word censored!"zu, a gregarious but unreliable breed and while I'm on a roll..... Did you hear about the man who brought a very limp dog into the vet? As he lay the dog on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope, placing the receptor on the dog's chest. After a moment or two, the vet shook his head sadly and said, "I'm sorry, but your dog has passed away." "What?" screamed the man. "How can you tell? You haven't done any testing on him or anything. I want another opinion!" With that, the vet turned and left the room. In a few moments, he returned with a Labrador Retriever. The Retriever went right to work, checking the poor dead dog out thoroughly. After a considerable amount of sniffing, the Retriever sadly shook his head and said. "Bark". The veterinarian then took the Labrador out and returned in a few moments with a cat, who also checked out the poor dog on the table. As had his predecessors, the cat sadly shook his head and said, "Meow." He then jumped off the table and ran out of the room. The veterinarian handed the man a bill for £600. The dog's owner went mad. "£600! Just to tell me my dog is dead? Why this is outrageous!" The vet shook his head sadly and explained. "If you had taken my word for it, it would have been £50, but with the Lab work and the cat scan..." Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
