Motty
Motty (July 11, 1978, Chester Zoo, Cheshire – July 23, 1978, Chester Zoo, Cheshire) was the only proven hybrid between an Asian and an African elephant. He was named after George Mottershead, who founded the Chester Zoo in 1931. The male calf was born on July 11, 1978, in Chester Zoo, to Asian mother ''Sheba'' and African father ''Jumbolino''.〔http://www.elephant.se/database2.php?elephant_id=1593〕 ==Appearance== The calf's cheek, ears (long with pointed lobes) and legs (longer and slimmer) were of the African type, while nail numbers (5 front, 4 hind) and the single trunk finger were Asian. The wrinkled trunk was like an African elephant. The forehead was sloping with one dome and two smaller domes behind it. The body was African in type, but had an Asian-type centre hump and an African-type rear hump.
