   > can a hybrid be classified as a species?
   Yes, but the hybrid must be true-breeding. True-breeding triticale is a new species, although it is a hybrid of wheat and rye.
   > Is a liger or a tigon a completely new species?
   Nope. Fertility among these guys is very low.

   A liger or tigon is a man-made animal. Without men, there would be no smarts in a lion or tiger to mate with eachother to create this special species. They can’t live on their own either. Very dependant.
