Liger... a real animal...
I was watching either channel 5 or 7 news today and a lion and tiger naturaly reproduced and made a liger... I'm not sure on the age of it but they say right now it's 900 pounds and the biggest cat in the world and not even done growing yet.... Man I wish I were 900 pounds....

They're worth a lot of money. My buddy's been trying to breed one for a while but the lion keeps eating the babies.

God, that thing is a beast!!! Although I would have to admit, if I were to get in a situation with one were it was trying to attacking me it wouldn't kill me... I would give him the old uncle finger poke to the eye's and then run for my life

FYI...there are also Tigons
I dont remeber which is which but the difference in Ligers and Tigons is which specie is the male or female
Tigons are supposed to me much smaller as well

The liger hybrid is more common than the tigon because the mating process is easier. The liger has both stripes and spots. The stripes are inherited from its tiger parent and the spots from the lion parent. Ligers are usually orangish/golden in color. However, there have been white tigers bred with lions to produce a very light golden coat on the offspring. If the hybrid offspring is a male, it will have a leonine mane, but it will not be as large and defined as a normal lion's mane. The liger gets most of its strength and size from both of its parents; this makes the liger possibly the largest cat in the world! On their hind legs, ligers stand approximately 12 feet tall. At most, ligers may weigh up to 1,000 pounds. Ligers make the sound of both a lion and a tiger, although their roar tends to sound more like a lion's roar.
The Liger is the result of breeding a female Tiger to a male Lion.
Tigon
(Tigons are sometimes referred to as Tiglons or Tions.) Tigons are very rare; only a few exist in the world, and even those are only held by private owners. This is because it is much more difficult to get the male tiger to mate with the female lion. Tigons look similar to ligers. They have varying stripes and spots. Tigons are also orangish in color. Male offspring may have a mane, but will be very modest. They are able to produce both lion and tiger sounds when they roar. One difference between tigons and ligers is their size. Tigons are not nearly as large as ligers. In fact, tigons are often times smaller than both of their parents. The lifespan of tigons, as well as other hybrid animals, is shorter than a normal species. The animals seem prone to cancers and other illnesses.
The Tigon is the result of breeding a male Tiger to a female Lion.
