Why is lion and tiger belong to different species even thoug they can sometimes breed?
Lions and tigers belong to different species because they are classified under separate species due to differences in their genetic makeup, behavior, and ecological niches. While they can interbreed and produce hybrids like ligers and tigons, these hybrids typically have reduced fitness and fertility issues, which is a key factor in defining species boundaries. The biological species concept emphasizes that species are groups of actually or potentially interbreeding populations that are reproductively isolated from other such groups, which helps explain why lions and tigers are distinct despite their ability to breed.
