Ever seen a TiLiger !!

I saw a Ti-Liger today , on TV of course.

Never knew such and animal existed.

This wildlife place, bred a Tiger with a Lion and and then bred the offspring ( Ti-Liger back with a lion

They say the animal is much tamer ,than either the lion or tiger alone.

What does it look like... gee hard to describe.

The coat does have strips but they are faded and the coat color is more like a lion's coat color then the yellow coat of the tiger.

Also the head is a little smaller than both the lion and the tiger.

It was pretty tame, the lady just put a collar around it's neck and took it for a walk.

I was amazed as I never saw this before or heard about it from anyone !!

I've seen a Liger at a big cat haven for former pets that were no longer wanted, but not a TiLiger.

I find it disturbing that people would want to cross breed wild animals to lead them around on a leash.

I hope this brood of hybrids is well taken care of. Interesting sighting Percy! Thanks.

You know I felt the same way.

I was thinking to myself,"Why would you want to cross breed these two animals."

They call them TiLigers.
Ti to rhyme with tie and Liger to rhyme with Tiger.

hmmm!?
