not at this time however im sure people are trying, but there are none existing that I know of.

It has been done, with bad outcomes, hatchlings died shortly after hatching. They are not closly related enough to produce viable offspring.

Really! I'm surprised they can't have viable offsprings. Incase you don't know, horses and donkey aren't even related, but how come they can have babies together, producing mules? I know that's strange...one of those evolutionary fluke, I guess.

Im guessing you know this already but "Mules", can't have offspring. At all, mules are the off spring of Donkey and Horses.

Mules are offspring that cant reproduce. Genetic Error possibly.

Im guessing Leos and Fat Tails can create some sort of mule, if ever successfully lives(if it hasnt already), it will be big.

One of my buddies was in the process of breeding them when he moved out west. I really wish I kept in touch, so I could of known the outcome. In my eyes, it has to be possible...difficult...but possible. Just my opinion. Sam
