How do you know lions and tigers are not the same species?
The exact definition of species has been difficult even for scientists to determine. However, in the case of animals, if one animal is crossed with another and the hybrid offspring are always infertile, the two animals are of different species. This is usually the case with lions and tigers. Hybrids (ligers or tigons) have been created in captivity, but the males are always infertile, and females usually are, too. However, in some cases, two animals that seem to be separate species can be crossed and create fertile offspring. In those cases, it is very difficult for scientists to determine whether two animals belong to the same species or not.
