such interspecific mating may even produce offspring?

If sexual intercourse between animals of different species (Tiger and lion, dogs and wolfs, or pigs, donkeys, ...). Would they produce offspring? may be half and half?

If sexual intercourse between humans and animals is relatively rare, it is not so very unusual between animals of different species. In some cases (horse and donkey, or lion and tiger), such interspecific mating may even produce offspring (mules, "ligers"). The human animal has, of course, no really close relative among the other mammals, and this may be reason enough to limit sexual contact with them. Obviously, such contact can also never lead to either a human or an animal pregnancy.
