liger

A hybrid from a male lion and a female tiger is called a 'liger' while a hybrid from a male tiger and a female lion is a tigon.

You learn what it's like to feed llamas, what a 'liger' is (it's a cross between a lion and a tiger - totally sweet), the best way to ask out the hot girl in your class, and the best strategies for running for class president.

We know that tigers and lions can produce hybrids called tigons and 'ligers' , so it is likely that they are descended from the same original kind.

Even when crossbreeding creates a viable hybrid, the offspring often inherits multiple copies of each parents' chromosomes, or sets of genes (see photos of 'ligers' , hybrids of lions and tigers).

The drive-through wildlife park is believed to have the country's largest concentration of 'ligers' , housing ten of the massive cats.
