Cama – Llama/One-Humped Camel
This animal may not initially seem all that intriguing, although it really is. The Cama is the offspring of a Llama and the one-humped camel. The Cama was originally bred in Dubai, at the Camel Reproduction Center. The idea was to breed a camel that could produce more wool. The Llama was chosen for the mix for its temperament. The male Camel is much larger than the female Llama. Therefore, the process was done by way of artificial insemination.

Zonkey – Zebra/Donkey
A strange animal hybrid with an even stranger name. The result of a Zebra and Donkey crossbreed, resulting in the Zonkey is one of the rarest pairings. Genetically speaking, Zebras and Donkeys are distant cousins, so they do share enough genetic material to allow for cross-breeding. The drawback with this combination is that dwarfism is quite common. It is another case where the genes that are responsible for growth and size are affected by hybridization.
