Some of their characteristics are the like to swim, which comes from the tiger, and being very sociable, which come from the lion. The first recorded time in history that ligers are known to have been created in is the year 1798
in India. The liger is believed to be the largest cat in the world at a stunning 11.5 feet long and 6 feet tall, while on all four legs. Even larger than a Siberian Tiger. This amazing hybrid is a great example of why we, as humans, should be extremely careful when experimenting with hybrids.
