Read up "Species" in Wikipedia, or the "Species Problem".

My heuristic would be that if animals can interbreed they're the same species, if they can't they're not. That makes Homo Sapiens the same species as Neanderthals of course, but I can live with that. |

I'm told there is somewhere a hill populated by hares. Those at the top can interbreed with those in the middle; those in the middle can interbreed with those at the bottom, but the top and bottom ones cannot interbreed. Apparently this is what a child hears on Day 1 of A-level biology.

A-level biology is clearly better than I thought.
