If you love animals and have a wild imagination, make sure to check out this funny yet terrifying series of hybrid animals photography instead of wasting your time wondering what a hybrid of two completely unrelated animals would look like. The series does it for you perfectly.
Created by Essex-based digital taxidermist and illustrator QuebecTango, the hybrid animals photography series is part of an ongoing project he works on for his Tumblr blog of digitally altered animal hybrids.
The mashups are sometimes cute -- like the squirrel and kitten hybrid -- and sometimes a little scary -- for example, the psycho frigs, horsquirrels, eagluanas and chinchillapotamuses will haunt you. The weird and sometimes adorable-looking species will make you fear our science-happy future and what could happen if humans decide to play with nature.
