These beautiful siblings are a mix of a lion and a tiger. Lions are extremely rare. There are around 1,000 of them worldwide, most of which live in prison. Yeti, Odlin, Sampson and Apollo are all in excellent condition. They may be the first white Leghorns ever born! These siblings’ parents are Yvonne, a white lioness, and Saraswati, a white tiger. There are only 1,200 white tigers and 300 white lions in the world.
Avery, Saraswati, and their children live in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The sanctuary is called TIGER. This sanctuary has successfully bred ligers in the past. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, one of their tigers, Hercules, is the largest in the world. Hercules weighs 922 pounds, but despite his size he is a very sweet guy and loves to play with his new canine friends and his grandchildren.

Liger cubs love to swim like tigers and are as social as lions. They also have their own personality traits.

Yeti is the liveliest of the four and will always be the center of attention. He is also the largest of the four Dr. Antle believes he may be even bigger than his uncle Hercules.
Antle believes that by the time they are two years old, the fourwill be at least 10 feet tall and weigh around 450 pounds. It is hard to imagine these little animals growing to be that big one day.
Look how unique these four liger cubs are!
