Species don't simply "appear" all the time. The development of new species takes thousands of years.

According to the theory of evolution, (which mind you, is a theory and not a law) if you take two identical pairs of birds (a male and female) and release them in two very different environments, in several thousand years, (assuming the birds survive the new environment) the birds might have decendants of very different colors, or shape, or diet.

Cross breeding is another way, taking two species of the same kind of animal (Two species of fruit flies) and having them mate might produce a new kind of animal

Ligers are a cross between a lion and tiger, and yes, they do exist
