Aha, species is one of the most problematic and contentious definitions of the scientific community. Generally, each species has a distinct gene pool and can not produce viable offspring by mating. A mule (the offspring of a male donkey and a female horse) is a well known exception to this rule, and while viable, is usually sterile. However, other sterile hybrids are known, especially in birds and plants, where they are often called a 'mule' as well.

It has a set of genes in the animal that help it reproduce and adapt to its environment to help it live.
