Liger - The Biggest Beast in the World

Liger is a common hybrid that is born from mating a male lion and a female tiger while tigon is a hybrid that results from mating a female lion with a male tiger. Ligers are bigger than both of the parent species while tigons do not exceed the size of the parent species. Lions and tigers live in different environments,  therefore, in the wild, it is very difficult for lions and tigers to interact. This is the reason you will see ligers and tigons only in the zoos, animal sanctuaries and special habitats. Female ligers and tigons are fetile while male ligers and tigons are infertile (sterile). Ligers can grow to be 16 to 19 feet weighing 360 to 450 kg. Female ligers can grow 10 feet and weigh approximately 320 kg.
