Ostrovityanka [42]
That fact can be explained by the similarity in their genes. 

Dogs and coyotes are from the same class, family and genus (Mammalia, Canidae, Canis).
This is almost enough for their offspring to be viable. But if the DNA is similar (which it is) offspring the chances of viable and fertile offspring is high almost at 100%.

What do you think of when you hear the word science? How would you define it?
Scorpion4ik [409]
<span>I usually think of biology first, and then physics. I trust those types of science a whole lot more than social sciences. I don't think of it like most non-sciency people do (like with diet pills and perfume). I think of it like using the actual scientific method, doing the same thing over and again expecting different results, taking the objective (or subjective, when that applies) results and forming a logical conclusion and not one that fits your hypothesis/agenda. Kind of like those kids that every high school has (on TV shows, they're the ones that are doing something with robotics all the time) that are nerdy, science geeks always running experiments and seeing what happens. </span>
