Tigons are produced when a male tiger breeds with a female lion.
Ligers are the offspring of a male lion bred with a female tiger.
Litigon
A litigon is the result of a pairing between a male lion and a female tigon. The first known litigon was born at the Alipore Zoo in Calcutta, India, in 1971. Although few exist, estimates suggest they can grow up to 11 feet long and weigh up to 798 pounds.Liliger
A liliger represents the offspring of a male lion and a female liger. The Hellabrunn Zoo in Munich, Germany, witnessed the first liliger birth in 1943. No data currently exists that estimates how large they can grow.Can Liger and Tigon mate?
Though many hybrid animals are infertile, ligers and tigons are not. They are perfectly capable of breeding and producing Li-Tigons, Ti-Ligers and other such amalgamations.
