real life liger

[TMF Jeff]

I don't know how many of you have seen Napoleon Dynamite, but this is an actual liger, the child of a male lion and a female tiger. There are also tigons, which are similarly ginormous.

I just found a couple of more pics of these monsters.

That movie wasn't the dumbest movie ever.

Wow! I want one of those! I need a new Cat.

(OK I know it's in bad taste, but I couldn't resist.)

Wow, that pussycat is something else! It could even compete with the primeval sabretooth-tiger in size.

Reminds me of a limerick (slightly adapted):

There was a young lady from Riga
Who rode with a smile on a liger.
They finished the ride
With the lady inside,
And the smile on the face of the liger...

😀 😀 😀

That liger's one cool cat.

Wow! Jeff! You found benji's mommy. I should have her shipped over here for a reunion. She'd make a great watchdog! lol

Actually most Tigon's are prone to dwarfism as Ligers are prone to giantism. The only people who breed them are private collectors as most Zoo's outlaw it. And they're all born infertile.

Oops, I mean, one of THOSE!

A few years ago my mom and I saw a liger in our backyard. Animal control thinks that someone had it as a pet and let it go in the woods near by when it got too big to handle. To this day everyone's looking for that missing liger!
