Liger, Mixed Between Lion and Tiger - Ligers are the result of mating between a male lion and a tigress. They rarely (if ever) happens in the wild, because the range of the lions and tigers rarely overlap, but in zoos and wildlife preserves, species interbreeding has occurred, resulting in a hybrid - Ligers or, more rarely, tigons (whose parents are male tiger and a female lion). Body shape and striping / patches varies, with some Ligers looks more like tigers, lions and others are more similar.
Behavior Ligers' is a mixture of behavior-such as the lion and tiger-like. As tigers (and unlike lions and most other cats), Ligers love being in the water, and the "vocabulary" they are a mixture of such chuffs tiger, lion-like roar.
Ligers can grow to a huge size. Growth regulating genes in lions donated by women, and the tiger by men. Do not have this gene, Ligers 3 to 4 years old are usually a half times greater than adult lion or tiger, and when they stopped growing, around 7, Ligers most probably twice the size of a lion or tiger, weighing 900-1500 pounds, and achieve 12 feet tall when standing on their hind legs.
Ligers have extraordinary disposition benign, but because the size is very large, very dangerous, and should be treated with caution, even a momentary interruption can have fatal consequences. This is the reason that the Erindale Liger, Kat Bane, was created. Combining dramatic color with a nose tiger and lion baleful eyes, the images convey mystery and menace that will certainly be a officer when you meet fantastic creatures in the wild
