It's hard to say, but not really really.

Since ligers are hybrid animals, cross between a lion and a tigress, and do not oocur in the wild as a viable species, they cannot be considered under any listing.

And as long as there are tigers and lions, there can always be new ligers.

What else can I help you with?

Ligers are not an actual species - they're bred in some circus, the mother is a tiger, the father is a lion. You shouldn't find some ligers in the wild, unless they have escaped from a circus. So they're not endangered, because they're not a natural species found in the wild.

Do ligers live in the US zoos?

Yes, ligers, which are hybrid offspring of male lions and female tigers, can be found in some zoos in the United States. However, they are not a naturally occurring species and are typically bred in captivity, often for exhibition purposes. Their presence in zoos raises ethical concerns regarding hybridization and conservation priorities. As such, not all zoos choose to exhibit ligers, focusing instead on species that are endangered or threatened in the wild.
