Kiara is the First Born Liliger Ever (20 pics)

such a cutiepie!!!

No one sees a problem with a cub of an African lion; the mother already a liger, bred in a Russian zoo being raised as a house cat?

I'm all for homogenization when it comes to pasteurized milk.

good point

The father is so beautiful..

Pick 7. You can see in the eyes the diference between a domestic animal
and a wild one.

modified animals, hmmm, let's see what happens...

it's cute and so on, but why do they keep crossing species that normally would not go together.. I just don't understand..? let nature do its job..

Shalaba,

The dog in your profile picture is years of selective breeding. Bulldogs were selectively bred to be short and stout, in order to be able to get under a bull and at it's belly. That's not nature, that's selective breeding. Cows, chickens, pigs, sheep... all are selectively bred by humans to benefit us, we just don't open our eyes to it all the time.

I wonder if the growth trait will be increased or decreased with the mother's genes? The male lion has genes which code for size, size in male lions being conducive to their defense of pride and offspring. This code for size is reduced in ligers because of the female tiger also having a predisposition towards large size. The female African lion is the genetic carrier for a balance of the species' genetic coding for size. Even when geographically close, lions and tigers have not been recorded to have bred (Asian lion and Bengal tiger) but the large size would probably not be conducive to living in the wild. Its all selective breeding in this case.

Liliger. . .Tition . . .what next?

Beautiful little thing!
