    Re: Hybrid Breeding?

    grey wolves, domesticated dogs, and any breedings within anything that fits either description is no hybrid.. except I guess you could argue dogs bred with grey wolves are technically hybrids of two SUB-species..

    Use hybrid in a Sentence
    –noun
    1. the offspring of two animals or plants of different breeds, varieties, species, or genera, esp. as produced through human manipulation for specific genetic characteristics.

    A wolf is a wolf. They're not hybrids..And ferrets are a domesticated version of some form of polecat. Similar to how dogs are the domesticated form of wolves.

    Re: Hybrid Breeding?

    Hybrid breeding can be really difficult. They're usually small subcompacts and the back seats are so cramped you can really get a crick in your neck.

    Where does hybrid talk about domestication?
    If a ferret and a dog are domesticated species, that means they are still the same species that they were originally before domestication.

    Wolves and Dogs are the same species, C. lupus, the domestication turns the dogs into subspecies of C. lupus called C. l. familiaris.
    Hybridization can only occur between two different species. Dogs do not count and I'm not understanding your point with domesticated ferrets..

    Perhaps you should read back a few posts to the guy who's trying to say that pit bulls are hybrids.

    Sorry, somehow the posts all got jumbled up in my brain.
    Either way, I wasn't trying to prove anything against you, rather him.

    This is the probably the most ignorant thing I've read today. Way to go American education system!
