Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

I knew this actually.



As I knew:



Zorse
Zedonk
Zebrass


And there are a few more that I knew of, but I forget the names of them now. :(

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

For some reason I always thought "liger" was spelt "Lyger"

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

So I guess the joke is on the writer's of Napolean Dynamite, who thought they had something clever here. In your face writer's! Napolean is referring to an actual species!

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

Read all about cross-breed animals here...

I'm surprised some of you guys didn't know that Ligers were real...

What's Nicolas Cage doing working for some freaky traveling show? I mean, I know the Weather Man wasn't classic, but it got good reviews..

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

There's also an okapi! It's a cross between a ZEBRA, Donkey, and a Giraffe. Don't ask me how that works, because I wouldn't be able to tell you.

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

Dear god...you couldn't get me to be a trainer for one of those things :eyes:

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

EDIT: Lame picture

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

Dylan, Okapi's arent natural.

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

Shall I be the one to break to you that these cross-breeds are usually not fertile?

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

I just found out Gryphon's are also real. LOL jk

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

wow. that's a pretty sweet find there.

I want one.

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

Um..I'm not Dylan, and I did not really know if they were or not. I just thought that they were another interesting "breed." (not sure if this is bad grammar, because there's only one word in quotes.)

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

I am, and I implied that God made them....


Just clearing things up.

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

Well, you see, Dylan is Dylan. Which is why I referred to him as Dylan.

He said something about "god".

I said Okapi's arent natural.

Dylan is Swan.

They once had a liger on the Tonight Show. They're really big. Over 10 feet long. If you breed the reverse (male of the other and female of the other) you get a Tion which are pretty small. Both are serile.

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

so why isn't a mule called a horkey or dorse or something

Re: Did you know Ligers exist?
 

Mules happen naturally while ligers do not...plus people breed mules for a purpose...i can't see breeding ligers if only to impress your friends with the sheer size of your giant cat. Not gonna have a lion and a tiger shacking up normally in the wild.

That's where the rufie comes into play...
