Bovid hybrids

A dzo () is a hybrid between the yak and the domestic cow. The word dzo technically refers to a male hybrid, while a female is known as a or . In Mongolian, it is called a ' (хайнаг). There is also the English portmanteau term of yattle'—a combination of the words yak and cattle, as well as yakow—a combination of the words yak and cow.

Beefalo constitutes a hybrid offspring of domestic cattle (Bos taurus), usually a male, and the American bison (Bison bison), usually a female, in managed breeding programs. The breed was created to combine the characteristics of both animals for beef production.

Żubroń (; ) is a hybrid of a domestic cattle and a wisent. The wisent ( in Polish) is the European bison; hence, the żubroń is analogous to the American cattalo. The name żubroń was officially chosen from hundreds of proposals sent to the Polish weekly magazine Przekrój during a contest organised in 1969.

hybrid mammal

The yakalo is a cross of the yak (Bos grunniens) and the American bison (Bison bison, known as a buffalo in North America). It was produced by hybridisation experiments in the 1920s, when crosses were made between yak bulls and both pure bison cows and bison–cattle hybrid cows. As with many other inter-specific crosses, only female hybrids were found to be fertile (Haldane's rule). Few of the hybrids survived, and the experiments were discontinued in 1928.
