Which is COOL. I love Wholphins. They're like, my new favorite aquatic animals. I'm a huge fan of the Lygers and Tigons, too! They're nifty!

Wow, that's so interesting. The mama wolphin is colored like a dolphin, but has a very short beak, much more like a whale.

Also, wolphin is such a cute word. Awwwwww, the baby wolphin!

There are only two in captivity, there are said to be some in the wild though. According to Wikipedia the false killer whale is actually another dolphin species.

I love dolphins too - I used to love watching Flipper

I don't know the answer for dogs, but in regards to horses they have 64 chromosomes, donkeys have 62, so the resulting mule has 63. There has been very few documented cases where a female mule was able to reproduce when mated back to a horse or donkey.

Then don't under any circumstance watch "The Cove", I cried for about 80% of that documentary and for about 10% more of the time I was full out bawling...I know I'm a wimp and all, but there is no way to avoid crying about what happened to the main Flipper
