It's a very rare - though real - crossbreed. I've heard that circus people did it in order to get the strange, exotic animals that people wanted to see. Yep.

A liger is a cross between a male lion and a female tiger; a tigon is a cross between a male tiger and a female lion. I am quoting the following: =========== Male ligers are sterile, but female ligers are fertile and can be bred to tigers (resulting in ti-ligers) or to lions (resulting in li-ligers). Ti-ligers are more tiger-like, having a greater percentage of tiger genes. Li-ligers are more lion-like, having a greater percentage of lion genes. Neither are common. The fertility of hybrid big cat females is well documented across a number of different hybrids. This is in accordance with Haldane's rule: in hybrids of animals whose gender is determined by sex chromosomes, the heterogametic sex (the one with two different sex chromosomes e.g. X and Y) is either absent, rare or sterile. ============ For complete information and pictures, here's the link:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liger Yes and there is also a tigon.

I just saw a show on the National Geographic Channel about them. They are the result of a male lion and a female tiger breeding and they are the even bigger than lions. There is also something a called a tigon, which is a male tiger and a female lion. There is. I just saw a show on the National Geographic Channel about them.
