Imagine an incredible encounter between a friendly bottlenose dolphin and a charming male false killer whale! Despite not being close relatives, this unusual pair presents the world with Forquinho.
While Mother Nature has already given us a glimpse of this hybrid in its environment, only in places like aquariums have we been able to truly confirm its existence.
These super special beings have a skin color that appears to be halfway between the gray of dolphins and the black of false killer whales, an exclusive dark gray tone.
Guess what? They have 66 teeth! Yes, it's as if we counted the teeth of the dolphin and the false killer whale and divided them by two. These incredible little pitchforks are a reminder of how nature never stops surprising us.

Imagine a romantic encounter between a gallant lion and a stunning tigress! From this unusual union the liger is born, a star of the animal world who could easily take the trophy for “Coolest Feline”. This big guy can weigh up to an incredible 450 kg, almost like a small car!
Although it is rare to find them roaming in the wild, as lions and tigers are not normally neighbors, in controlled environments, they steal the show.
They have a super stylish look, more like lions, but with a touch of tiger: they love to dive and have elegant stripes on their backs. Ligers are a fun reminder that nature has its own way of mixing and matching.
Grolar Bear

Have you ever imagined what the outcome of an encounter between a polar bear and a grizzly bear would be like? Well, from this cute mix the grolar bear was born!
Although in nature these two teddy bears prefer to keep their spaces, thanks to human help, they came together and gave rise to this cute hybrid.
Guess what? With a touch of grizzly bear in the DNA, grolar bears love to enjoy warmer climates. It's like they have the best of both worlds! These teddy bears show that nature and humans, together, can create incredible surprises.
Zebroid

Now, imagine a horse deciding to wear zebra pajamas! Well, the zebroid is almost that. It is born from the playful union between a zebra and any other member of the horse family.
Although it tends to inherit characteristics from both sides, what's super cool about the zebroid is that it always seems to be wearing part of the zebra's striped “pajamas”. A true animal fashion! This stylish look makes the zebroid one of the stars of the animal world.
