Most animals have perverted lusts and often try to mate with other animals. Like a dog on your leg. How do you explain that to your son? I don't know.

Tigers are from Asia and Lions are from Africa. They are only bred in captivity as they do not share the same habitats in the wild. Tigers are from Asia and Lions are from Africa.

It is denoted scientifically as Panthera tigris × Panthera leo. A liger resembles a lion with diffused stripes. They are the largest cats in the world, although the Siberian Tiger is the largest pure sub-species. Like tigers, but unlike lions, <a href="http://www.liger.org">ligers</a> enjoy swimming. A similar hybrid, the offspring of a male tiger and a female lion is called a tigon. Rare reports have been made of tigresses mating with lions in the wild. Under exceptional circumstances it has been known for a tiger to be forced into ranges inhabited by the Asiatic Lion, Panthera leo persica; however, this combination of species in the wild is considered highly unlikely. The present-day ranges of wild lions and tigers no longer overlap. As a result of accidental breeding in a wildlife habitat in flordia they have a liger named <a href="http://www.liger.org/hercules-the-liger/">hercules</a> that stands around 10 feets tall and is expected to reach 12 feet in length by maturity. Along with purely accidental breeding of the animals own desire, they can be created thru invetro fertilization. The liger is a hybrid cross between a male lion and a female tiger.
