Some, yes. For example, a mule is a cross between a male donkey and a female horse (a hinny results when a male horse and female donkey are crossed). In the example given (a cross between a male donkey and a female horse). The offspring (the mule) would have a high probability of being sterile from birth.

∙ 12y agoIn most cases...no. But their are special animals that can be both female and male. So they can in a way...mate with themself. For example, worms. In other ways, different kinds of fish can turn into a male or female. But I would say, primarily, no two of the feminine species cannot mate with eachother and produce offspring sucessfully.

How do you know that greyhound and poodle belong to the same species?
A species is defined as a group of similar organisms which can interbreed and produce fertile offspring. Both a Poodle and a Greyhound are therefore of the same species, Canis Lupus Familiaris, as they are genetically very similar and can produce puppies which can themselves breed. An example of two species which appear very similar but cannot produce fertile offspring are the donkey and the horse. A donkey can mate with a horse and produce a foal (which is known as a mule), but this foal will be infertile and unable to produce its own offspring. Therefore, we know that a donkey and a horse are not of the same species, and that a Poodle and a Greyhound are.
