I consider a species a group of animals that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring (My own words btw) as that's what I was taught, for instance, a horse and a donkey are not the same species in my opinion as they produce a mule which in turn is sterile.

Maybe you can help me answer this tore as I always wondered it.

Why is the mule sterile? Why is a "Liger" sterile? I was never taught that and I always wondered why two animals from the same family couldn't interbreed (well they can technically) but they cannot produce fertile offspring? It's always confused me.
