They may look familiar but these big cats are extremely unique and rare.

This big cat mother recently gave birth to three adorable [size=1.2em]liliger cubs at [size=1.2em]a zoo in Novosibirsk, Russia.

Although the mother and her cubs look like tigers, she is in fact a lion-tiger hybrid known as a liger - the biggest known cat in the world.

Bizarre: A Russian zoo is home to a unique animal - the liger. It is half-lioness, half-tiger. Mother Zita is pictured licking her one month old liliger cub

Cute: The first liliger was born in the zoo last year and now there's a second litter of three, all of them females

Curious: The cubs were born in May and now have grown up enough to start exploring their surroundings... much to the concern of their mother Zita

The first was born in the zoo last year and now there's a second litter of three, all of them females.

They were born in May and now have grown up enough to start exploring their surroundings, showing an endearing clumsy energy.

Their mother, Zita, was born in the zoo in 2004. Their father, Sam, is an African lion. The offspring of a lion and liger is called a liliger.

The liger is the largest known cat in the world and holds similar characteristics to both lions and tigers.

Loveable: The tiny cubs enjoy playing in the sand at the zoo

Fluffy: A liliger is a big cat breed where the father is a lion and the mother is a lion-tiger hybrid, known as a liger

Just like tigers, they enjoy swimming and are very sociable like lions.

They exist only in captivity because the habitats of tigers and lions do not cross in the wild.

Ligers are known for growing bigger than either parental species.

Protective: Zita carries one of her cubs as another walks by her side

Playful: The young cub plays around the feet of mother Zita, who has her hands full with the three cubs

Aku sebenarnya menentang haiwan hybrid nie kerana ia mengganggu kehidupan asal haiwan ini. Tetapi kalau dah berada di dlm jagaan manusia maka aku boleh bersetuju.

Perlu diingat Panthera Tigris dan Panthera Leo merupakan kucing yg berbeza kehidupan sosialnya.. mahupun cara memburunya.

hybrid yang di haramkan oleh kerajaan malaysia   ARNAB + KAMBING= ARKAM = ARQAM .. diharam terus.. kalau dapat sapa yang kacukan akan di ISA kan ..

Aku tak pernah dgr lagi haiwan herbivor dikacukkan dgn karnivor or atau omnivor..

One more thing..
Arnab tu species Rodensia..
Kucing tu species Felidae.

Mmg akan menganiaya binatang tu nanti..
