"Grolar"

A hybrid between a grizzly and a polar bear has been shot in Canada-- species that have been separated for more than 200,000 years. Nervous about warming in the arctic yet?

""Everybody thought it was a polar bear, and then they started looking more and more and they seen [sic] other features that resembled some of a grizzly as well."

"The bear had thick, creamy white fur, typical of polar bears, but its long claws, humped back and shallow face, as well as brown patches around its eyes, nose, back and on one foot are grizzly traits."

Of course bureaucrats will be bureaucrats. "If it is found to be a grizzly bear, Martell, whose hunting licence only allowed him to shoot polar bears, may be charged with shooting the wrong animal, officials said."

From the Sydney Morning Herald of all places!
