New unique animal, liger, born in Siberian zoo
A baby animal like that cannot be born in wild nature
Visitors of the zoo in Russia's Novosibirsk (Siberia) will soon have a unique opportunity to see a half-breed of the Bengal tiger and the African lion, the scientific director of the zoo, Olga Shilo said on Monday.
A female tiger of the mobile part of the Novosibirsk zoo gave birth to two kittens (a male and a female) five months ago. An African lion was the father of the two kittens. One of the animal babies was taken to Novosibirsk, and the other one stayed with the mother in the mobile zoo, Interfax reports.
No inter-species, eh?
Gee, golly...perhaps it was a miracle from God?
