Rare Cats

[novastar_]

I feel that Tigons are rarer as i've never seen a tigon..... I have only seen ligers b4...... in korea....

[Inuyasha]

Tigons are extremely rare. ONLY one still exists and now many coutnries have begun banning hybrids. The chance of still be able to see one is almost nonexistentant and soon will be nonexistent under the law. You saw a liger be contnet. LOL,

[Inuyasha]

The only tigon is privately owned so nobody but the owner has seen him. Yet.... I'm trying to go and viist this tigon. I'll send pictures if i do.

An intersting change in cheetahs is occuring. Cheetahs are bottle necked so their genetic diversity is very low. But they are reapidly evolving new genes. Is this true. Could anyone give me more information.

[Inuyasha]

I really need some help on this subject

Inu, edit your posts if you wanna type more. Posting 4 posts continuously just takes up space. Good stuff with what's going on around here by the way.

[Inuyasha]

ANd ur posts seem just to mock mine. I mean really if you want to post should you at least put some useful information rather than slander mine. LOL Just joining but seriously ur posts are just as long as mine. At least the new one u just posted

Hey guys please don't argue.

[Bleh]

just for who was wondering what one looks like- this is a tigon



Also i honestly think that more that one ti-togon has been born, just not alive... or died while still young.

[Inuyasha]

but a tigon doesn't count until it survives the first few months...

Ok, I'm new to this biology stuff, but I know enough to be curious about this. I know dogs can mate between other types of dogs, but they're not different species. I mean lions and tigers are of a completely diffferent species. Dogs are dogs, they're all the same species. But different species' cant mate to create fertile offspring, so even if a liger got together with a tiger, they wouldn't be able to mate because the liger would be sterile, wouldn't it??

[Inuyasha]

no. female ligers are actually 95% fertile. Male ligers whoever are all sterile. A female liger can mate with another male lion or tiger creating a li-liger and a ti-liger. Same applies to female tigons.
