J.DOG 1,355 Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 I'm sure that ligers have really bad healthy problems and don't live long I think m not sure though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Read about them before. Apparently they're so big because the gene which controls the final size of each separate species comes from the opposite sex to the ones used in the breeding. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Apparently they're so big because the gene which controls the final size of each separate species comes from the opposite sex to the ones used in the breeding. ah right, I wondered why they were so big. seems a bit of unnecessary faffing with nature but I'd still quite like to see one in the flesh, if that was just a pic I'd say photoshop, they're unreal!

rocky1 942 Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 should,nt be messing about with species breeding Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 They'll readily mate with each other, no human intervention needed apart from putting them together in the right place at the right time. Their ranges don't overlap in the wild though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob190364 2,594 Posted October 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 should,nt be messing about with species breeding are you working a wolf then? last time I checked lurchers wouldn't have occurred without humans messing about with species! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wolves were domesticated for a reason and the reason was as companions and to do jobs people couldn't were as crossing tigers and lions doesn't have a purpose there is no need for it just creates unhealthy animals that have no real purpose to humans Just my opinion though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

People cross species all the time, just look at the fantastic mules in the cage and aviary section on here. This is just a scaled up version.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Personally, I don't really see a big issue with it in this case, they'd be crossing cats in captivity any way, and this is just a variation. As malt said, if they lived in the same habitat it would probably occur naturally anyway. I don't think they're unhealthy are they? I thought it just said if it was wild it wouldn't be able to catch enough meat to sustain itself due to its size? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
