On the island of Gigli in Tuscany there are wild goats called mufloni. This kind of goat is very endangered. \n\nThere is a large rare butterfly called the Parnassus Apollo. Its wings are almost transparent, with spots edged in black and red. It is a protected insect because it is endangered.\n\nIn the Pollino National Park in Calabria, there are  the rare Royal eagle and the Capriol deer.

lions and tigers are one i know of. aka ligers/tygons. i believe wolves/dogs can be too. i would assume that there could be a lot more possibilities as long as they are in the same family of animal.

Italy has at least three zones of differing vegetation: the Alps, the Po Valley, and the Mediterranean-Apennine area. From the foot of the Alps to their highest peaks, three bands of vegetation can be distinguished. First, around the Lombard lakes, the most common trees are the evergreen cork oak, the European olive, the cypress, and the cherry laurel. Slightly higher, on the mountain plain, the beech gives place gradually to the deciduous larch and the Norway spruce. In the high-altitude zone, twisted shrubs give way to pastureland with grasses and sedges and wildflowers. At the snow line grow innumerable mosses, lichens, and flags. \n\nIn the Po Valley little remains of the original forests because agriculture and industry have supplanted most of the natural vegetation. Poplars predominate where there is abundant water, but in the drier zones there are a few sedges. On the upland plains, heather abounds, and there are forests of Scotch pine. Water lilies are common on the banks of marshes. \n\nIn the Apennine zone extending the length of the peninsula, a typical tree is the holm oak, while the area closer to the sea is characterized by the olive, oleander, carob, mastic, and Aleppo pine. There is a notable development of pioneer sea grape on the coastal dunes. The Mediterranean foothill area is characterized by the cork oak and the Aleppo pine. Higher up, in southern Italy, there are still traces of the ancient mountain forest, with truffle oak, chestnut, flowering ash, Oriental oak, white poplar, and Oriental plane. Where the forests have been destroyed in the strictly Mediterranean section, a scrub called macchia has grown up. The Apennine pasturelands are very much like those of the Alps. The papyrus is quite common in Sicily as a freshwater plant.

No even though where similar geneticly where not that close. I think the only species that can do that are a zebra/donkey and  donkey/horse

I would have to say no. I however recommend checking it up on Encarta, and Infoplease. If I recall those animals came later, yet my memory is not great with times.
