“Are you trying to say it is ok to eat a mule?”

No but it is ok to eat a Kvi which some say is a cross between a goat and gazelle.
This halacha is codified in Rambam MAchalos issuros 1:13

“כִּלְאַיִם הַבָּא מִבְּהֵמָה טְהוֹרָה עִם חַיָּה טְהוֹרָה הוּא הַנִּקְרָא כְּוִי. חֶלְבּוֹ אָסוּר וְאֵין לוֹקִין עָלָיו וּמְכַסִּין אֶת דָּמוֹ. וְאֵין מִין טָמֵא מִתְעַבֵּר מִמִּין טָהוֹר כְּלָל:”

“This does not make sense.”

I dont make the rules
