MUIRHEAD`S MYSTERIES: DEER- HORSE HYBRIDS?

Bob Skinner kindly sent me the following link which reports on unlikely hybrids,though on this occasion there is a photograph taken in Georgia, U.S of a horse-deer cross. There is also a quote from the Edinburgh New
Philosophical Journal (1827) mentioning such a hybrid in Berlin and Gerald of Wales mentions a deer-hybrid in the 12th century in his Journey through Wales. .

The bottom of the two links,above,is about jumarts, cattle crossed with an ass or horse, including a drawing of one in France in 1766 and a photo of the skull of one in the holdings of the French National College of
Veterinary Medicine.
