what cromosomes does a mother and father of a liger have A Liger , as you know, is a cross between a lion (Panthera leo) and a Tiger (Panthera tigris). Since these parents each have 38 chromosomes (2N=38), so do the Liger. To explain this a little deeper, a Liger should get 19 chromosomes from its' dad, and 19 from its' mom (1N=19), this is the haploid number, so 2N=38 for Lion, Tiger and Liger. As a good analogy to this, we all know a human has 46 chromosomes (2N=46). 23 of them are from Mom and 23 from Dad.
