Ok, I am not supporting bestiality here. But, I just came to know about a Dogxim, a dog fox hybrid and I had known for a long time that horses and donkeys can breed (to produce a mule). So, I was just curious, can humans breed with any other animals closely related to us?

Not anymore. We assimilated the neanderthals a long time ago.

Other close relative species don't exist anymore.

Breed with, out-competed, killed... All options on the table, the important thing is to get busy.

There were multiple attempts to cross humans and chimpanzees, all of which failed. However, through gene editing, human-chimpanzee and human-pig chimeras were created.
These are just normal animals, but their inner organs are made to be compatible for human organ donation.

There's a documentary called Revenge of "Billy the Kid" that doesn't go into too much detail, but might answer your question.
