The liger is a hybridcross between a male Panthera leo, and a female Panthera tigris and is denoted scientifically as Panthera tigris and Panthera leo.A liger resembles a giant lion with diffused stripes. They are the largest cats in the world, although the Siberian Tiger is the largest pure breed. Like tigers, but unlike lions, ligers enjoy swimming. A similar hybrid, the offspring of a male tiger and a female lion is called a tigon.

One word to describe this animal.. Huge :eek:
