I don't know. Ask a Great Dane. |
*Slightly OT*
I went to India a few years ago with my wife and her family, and whilst driving to Amritsar we stopped to refresh ourselves at a roadside cafe. During our rest stop we were pleased to observe a very large mastiff type dog (clearly a bitch in heat) being pestered by a small terrier type dog (clearly a male). The smaller male dog was taking long run ups and launching himself genitalia first at the larger bitch. The size comparison was not quite chihuahua vs great dane, but close enough. As we pulled away from the cafe we noticed that, in the absence of molecular or biochemical inhibition, the physical barrier required by speciation had been successfully overcome.
Quite literally.
