Discovering New Species Through Photoshop

Unexpected Animal Hybrids

The magical world of photoshop is enabling people to dream up a hybrid animals.

I don't really know where to start describing what I love about them. What makes these images so strong for me is threefold:
1) The quality is amazing
2) The morphing almost seamless
3) They look cute and scary at the same time

I do wish these animals existed in the real world as they are simply brilliant. Sadly, despite my friend Google, I can't seem to attribute them to anyone. If it is you - then good work.

The bird rabbit is the one I simply must have for a pet, while the rooster-rhino looks like a dinosaur and the fox-owl looks a bit like an alien. The black oriental with magpie is my favourite, although the black oriental currently asleep on my lap is distinctly unimpressed.
