There are various wrong claims about the actual population of the ligers.

Xixua.net.news Agency claimed there were 8 ligers lefted in the world. However, I don't believe that.

National Geographic claimed that there were 30 ligers lefted in the world. I think they only counted the ligers in USA.

The Sun claimed that there were nearly 100 ligers. Well, the sun is correct, but what is the actual number?

The Liger World had given a much correct claim. They did by profiling 90% of the ligers. According to the video and the website, there were 30 ligers in United States, 20 ligers in China, 4-9 ligers in Germany, 4 in Russia, 4 in Korea and 20 in other countries. That means there were about 82-87 ligers lefted in the world.

There are only approximately 100 ligers in captivity all around the world. The reason for this is because they are so rare to come by.

There are probably less than 1,000 ligers, the offspring of a male lion and a female tiger, in the world. Most were bred in zoos because the habitats of wild lions and tigers do not overlap.
