Scientists call this assortative mating.

For animals, mating methods include random mating, disassortative mating, assortative mating, or a mating pool.

The low fitness of the hybrids would cause selection to favor assortative mating, which would control hybridization.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Such preferences induce assortative mating with respect to ecological characters and enhance the strength of disruptive selection.

In particular, models for the evolution of assortative mating under frequency-dependent disruptive selection necessarily depend on a large number of ecological and genetic factors.
