Mules

In this article on ligers, the Daily Mail says:

There are hundreds of hybrids in the animal world, some common such as the mule - a cross between a female horse and a male donkey - and some more unusual, such as the labradoodle, a mix of labrador and poodle.

Oh dear lord, but I hope that that’s some dry British humor I’m not getting. ‘cause I’d greatly prefer that to thinking that the author doesn’t get the difference between a species and a breed.
