tl;dr: There are 720 variations of the animal that have different sexual reproduction limitations with each other. They have the same anatomy but differ on the DNA level.




If an organism have enouth DNA diference that dosen`t allow it to reproduce with another, that would not make it another species?


No. It's just a small part of the DNA (like male vs female in most animals). The organism that can't reproduce with another organism still came from two of the same organisms.
