Yes, there are ligers. The Liger is a hybrid cross between a male lion and a female tiger (i.e, Panthera leo × Panthera tigris). A liger resembles a lion with diffused stripes. They are the largest cats in the world, although the Siberian Tiger is the largest "pure" taxon. Ligers and tigers enjoy swimming, whereas lions do not. A similar hybrid, the offspring of a male tiger and a female lion is called a tigon.

Big cats, similarly to different breeds of dogs, can be cross bred. It is not something that has been documented as a natural occurence, but something forced by man.

yes because a lion and tiger can have a baby. It's not impossible but it's not common either.

Ligers are very real but do not occur naturally (lions are native to Africa and tigers to Asia). They are the product of mating a male lion with a female tiger.
