What is the biological species concept of Ernest Mayr?
Mayr's definition of a species is based on the genetic isolation of populations.A ... difficulty which confronts us in our attempt at a species definition is thatthere is, in nature, a great diversity of different kinds of species. Even if we donot consider such aberrant phenomena as the apomictic species in plants andthe strains of bacteria, there is, even among animals, a great variety of differenttaxonomic situations which are generally classified as species. The question as towhether the species of birds, of corals, or protozoa, and of intestinal worms arethe same kind of evolutionary phenomena is entirely justified. . . It may not be exaggeration if I say that there are probably as many species concepts as there arethinking systematists and students of speciation. [(Mayr 1942: 114-115)]A species consists of a group of population which replace each othergeographically or ecologically and of which the neighboring ones intergradeor interbreed wherever they are in contact or which are potentially capable ofdoing so (with one or more of the populations) in those cases where contact isprevented by geographical or ecological barriers.Or shorter: Species are groups of actually or potentially interbreedingnatural populations, which are reproductively isolated from other such groups.[Systematics and the Origin of Species, 1942: 120]

If animals have ears give live birth only?
Not all animals that have ears give live birth. For example, many species of mammals, such as dogs and cats, do give live birth, but other animals with ears, like certain species of frogs and reptiles, lay eggs. Ears are a feature found in various animal groups, but reproductive methods can vary widely across species. Thus, the presence of ears does not determine whether an animal gives live birth or lays eggs.
