As cool as ligers are ... They suffer so many health problems it's not worth having them

[gunlyrics]

Considering how huge Ligers are, they are calmer than their parents. We know, that Tigers and Lions are extreme territorial animals. But the Liger, which usually can't exist in the wild and thus, doesn't really have hunting and territorial instincts, remain calm.
Even though they are calm, they are not to underestimate. Ligers still are big cats, that are able to hunt humans, when they get angry.

Dont play with nature... Otherwise nature will give a befitting reply

[MrMaxstil]

They reincarnated the sabertooth! :D All we need now is some walrus! Muahahahaha! *Lightning*

[NeosHelios]

Beautiful animal, but at a terrible cost it’s a useless hybrid. They wouldn’t even be able to survive in the wild. In the words of Dr. Ian Malcom just because you could, that doesn’t mean you should.

The video clearly states:
"Ligers are only created when the two rival cat species meet in captivity. The resulting genetic cocktail cooks up a giant. A super cat that is so big it may be too heavy to hunt."

[hanahk.a]

its always so cool to see what we can do with nature and genetics but its quite sad to see them being bred for our own experiments, knowing they'll have health problems and are reproductively sterile :(

[khanmaheer]

That liger is so big that Thanos had to snap twice! 👌👌

[filegrabber]

Polar bears and Grizzlies do mate in the wild sometimes, their offspring is also huge :D
