The Curio

I suppose it’s easier to say than “Tion”. Anyway this is one big and very rare cat.

Lion plus Tiger equals Liger - Life in the Fast Lane:

“A liger is the product of bizarre directive crossbreeding of a male lion and a female tiger, resulting in a creature that resembles their lion heritage more so than the tiger, and are entirely real. There are only a handful of ligers in the entire world.”

[Update: apparently a "Tigon" is the offspring of a male tiger with a female lion, whereas a Liger is the offspring of a female tiger and male lion. Just thought I'd clear that up.]
