No, lions and tigers do not live in the same place. They each have their own niche and avoid one another.
In their own habitats, they do occupy the same niche, as apex predators.

Why would lions not be able to occupy the same niche as zebras or polar bears?
Lions cannot occupy the same niche as zebras or polar bears because they have different dietary requirements and adaptations. Zebras are herbivores, specializing in grazing on grasses, while lions are carnivores that feed on herbivores like zebras. On the other hand, polar bears are adapted to the Arctic ecosystem and primarily feed on seals, which are not available in the habitat of lions. Different dietary needs and adaptations make it impossible for these species to occupy the same ecological niche.
Does lions hunt with tigers together?
No, lions and tigers do not share the same habitat.
Can lions kill tigers?
Tigers and lions do not normally share the same habitat so would never meet in nature. However, tigers are bigger than lions so would probably win.
Does a Hawk and a owl occupy the same niche?
No. Because the hawk and owl hunt similar prey but occupy different ecological niches. Yes. The hawks hunt in daylight, and are replaced by owls species at night, but there are owls that hunt in the same areas as the hawks, so they do occupy the same ecological niche.
What principle states that no two species can occupy the same niche in the same habitat at the same time?
The habitat is where an organism lives and has many different organisms within it. The niche is the purpose that organism fulfills in that habitat. No two species can occupy the same niche in the same habitat due to competition for that role.
If two mouse species tried to occupy the same niche in a meadow?
If 2 mouse species tried to occupy the same niche they would fight. The mice fight to right to occupy the niche. The winner of the fight gets the niche.

What will two species with a high degree of niche overlap do?
Mostly they will get along together, depending upon the species. Other wise they will not get along. Lions and Hyenas get along more or less, but do squabble. But cattle and lions or hyena do not get along, even though they occupy the same niche. By definition, carnivores must occupy some one else's niche. But in a field, cattle, horses and sheep will coexist happily. Birds by and large do not seem to have this coexistence philosophy.
Why Two species cannot occupy the same niche?
If two animals occupied the same niche, they would have to compete for the resource that is gained from that specific niche
No two animal can occupy the same niche. This was enunciated by?
Gause.
Does lions hunt with tigers together?
No, lions and tigers do not share the same habitat.
What happen when two organism attempt to occupy the same niche?
From A+: competition :)
Can the same organism occupy the same niche?
Not for long. Competition for resources will drive one species out.
Does in a particular environment two species can usually occupy the same niche?
True
What happened when two organisms attempt to occupy the same niche?
COMPETITION competition
What happens when to organism attempt to occupy the same niche?
Only one will survive.
What happens to when two organisms attempt to occupy the same niche?
