How about camels and llamas then? They are separated by continents and millions of years, yet, the hybrids of them are viable.
Nor can they mate on their own, the size differential is too great.

I was more wondering about the biblical literalists..
I think my favorite hybrid that actually lived is the sheep/goat hydrid.. one species has 54 chromosomes, the other has 60, with the hydrid having 57.
It's alive, it breaths.. it is just sterile.
I am just wondering if it will get put in with the sheep or the goats in judgement day.
