Default cross breeding

just wondering about different species cross breeding as i saw the leopard/sulcutas babies pics what are some other cross breeds people have heard about or breed . As like dogs you could get some unusual looking critters, is it easy to do , or are all tortoises able to cross breed .

Dogs aren't cross bred, they are all the same species.

Crossing different tortoise species would be like crossing a lion with a tiger, which has been done, and causes health problems for the offspring, which is likely with cross breeding different tortoise species.

So yes people do cross breed tortoises, but thats people interfering and animals paying the price for there curosity.
