  2. Liger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liger

    The liger is distinct from the opposite hybrid called the tigon (of a male tiger and a lioness), and is the largest of all known extant felines. [1] [2] They enjoy swimming, which is a characteristic of tigers, and are very sociable like lions. Notably, ligers typically grow larger than either parent species, unlike tigons. [1] [2] [3]

  3. Liliger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liliger

    The liliger is the hybrid offspring of a male lion (Panthera leo) and a female liger (Panthera leo♂ × Panthera tigris♀). Thus, it is a second generation hybrid. In accordance with Haldane's rule, male tigons and ligers are sterile, but female ligers and tigons can produce cubs.

  4. Panthera hybrid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panthera_hybrid

    Panthera hybrids are typically given a portmanteau name, varying by which species is the sire (male parent) and which is the dam (female parent). For example, a hybrid between a lion and a tigress is a liger, because the lion is the male parent and the tigress is the female parent.

  5. Tigon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tigon

    Ligers and tigons were long thought to be sterile; in 1943, however, a 15-year-old hybrid between a lion and a tiger was successfully mated at the Munich Hellabrunn Zoo. The female cub was then raised to adulthood. [2] Like the liger, male tigons are sterile while the females are fertile.

  6. Tiger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger

    The liger is the offspring of a female tiger and a male lion and the tigon the offspring of a male tiger and a female lion. [45] The lion sire passes on a growth-promoting gene, but the corresponding growth-inhibiting gene from the female tiger is absent, so that ligers grow far larger than either parent species.
