Veiled Panther Chameleon?

Is it possible to mate a Veiled with a Panther Chameleon? Imagine the offspring... Im sure someone has tried it. Im just curious.
 
well giraffes and tigers arent a good analogy. more like a lion and a tiger which has been done. to tell you the truth i was thinkin about this the other day and wondered what a veiled jackson would look like or a fischers/jacksons would be like. mating may not be possible but artificial insemination has been done successfully with camels and llamas so maybe the same could hold true for chams. its a fun topic to think about! XD if anybody's with me, please say so! i'd like to hear what others think. (hopefully that im not a total nut-job)
 
or just an artwork contest too. id love to draw these but my computer doesnt have a great photoshop. that or i jast cant use it properly. XD
 
or you could just color a veiled all different colors. Or give him an extended nose. Because its either going to have a casque or not going to have one lol. If you remove a veileds casque its goin gto pretty much look like a panther.
 
No it's not possible. Veileds are from the genus Chamaeleo and panthers are from the genus Furcifer. Tigers and lions are from the same genus and also at one point shared a small section of their ranges where the crossing could have happened.

It would be like breeding a lion and a house cat. Doesn't work. Now, a veiled and an Arabian chameleon could be bred because they are from the same genus and also share territory. A veiled, panther, and jacksons would never meet in the wild and are from different genus'.
 
Also like to say, you could mate them, but nothing would happen.

A panther and oustalets could be bred as well since they are both from Madagascar and are from the same genus.

Another analogy, breeding a human and a gorilla. Or perhaps a corn snake and a ball python. Or a tree and a flower. Or a Pygmy and a veiled. They are the same 'type' of animal, but they cannot create offspring. It just doesn't work.

Here's a quote for ya.

Being in different genera doesn't necessarily mean they can't cross-breed. The breed of cat called the Savannah is a hybrid between a serval (Leptailurus serval) and a domestic cat (Felis catus). F1 generation Savannahs are very difficult to produce, but not impossible. The same could be true of panthers and veilds. In order to know for sure, someone would have to actually try cross-breeding them and see if you get any viable offspring.
 
I believe people have tried to cross breed them? At least I think I read that somewhere.
 
well it definitely has been done with camels and llamas and they are definitely of a different genus right? lets hope that dream can be a reality!
 
Why would you want a veiled to be bred with a panther? The hybridization of different animals is never a sure thing and you have no idea how it would turn out if it was even possible. Why would you want to mud down the blood of two already great (natural!) animals? What purpose does it serve other than satisfying your curiosity?

Why don't we have people try to have babies with other primates then?! Let's keep making lots and lots of ligers who happen to grow longer than both their parents because of hybridization? Or why don't we try breeding a veiled and a pygmy together?

A hybrids only original purpose in life is to see how it turns out. It can't be set free, many can't reproduce, and they aren't natural. If we find that it's good at something then it's a plus right? Hey, mules have no purpose for their lives, so let's give them one! To work for us! Or better yet, let me use it to brag about. "hey guys, I have a panther veiled that's worth $xxxx!"
 
You seem to have a lot of big opinions. It's not possible, so it can be left at that.
