NIH has them as family Delphinidae:
Pseudorca crassidens for the false killer whale
Tursiops truncatus for bottlenosed dolphin.

Misclassification or something more amazing?

“But most hybrids are born in captivity - which may suggest sexual frustration and proximity are stronger factors.”

Which is why I stay out of the bars.... never know what you’ll end up with.

Other odd hybrids include the result of lions that have mated with tigers, called ligers and tigons; brown bears and grizzlies with polar bears, goats with sheep and wolves with domestic dogs.

What about RINOS with elephants?

Well, I have this neutered JRT and a spayed calico cat that think they are in love.If they could would the offspring be called Cad or a Dot? Maybe a Cog or a ditty?

The result was Nikita [Mikulski], who was born less than 50cm high, with very short legs, an unusually large head, delicate pointed hooves and stripes like her father.

Something about this should cause great stimulation among the Democrat Govenor class. Maybe an opportunity for their offspring to rule the earth and the seas?
