An example of clear miscegenation, for americanstd. Sorry the bear was hunted though. :(

Why would anyone hunt bears? The meat is not very good.

Very interesting though, I guess that means grizzlies and polar bears are pretty damn similar genetically. I wonder if they're like wolves and dogs, or if they're like lions and tigers where you have to have certain conditions exist for it to work.
