White Tiger and White Lion Had Babies And They’re Adorable

There are only about 1200 white tigers and 300 white lions left in the world so that makes it so rare for a tiger and a lion to mate. Ivory and Sarswati have four little cubs who are unique and amazing. They are called Yeti , Odlin , Sampson and Apolo.

Theor rare genealogy makes them special and there are likely the first white ligers to ever be born. They have unique cream colored coats and spots. By the time they are just two years old they eventually will grow to be as tall as 10 feet, so the sanctuary’s staff might be able to hold them now but soon these cubs will reach a hefty 750 pounds each.

750 pounds is a lot for an animal but that’s a fair estimate when you’re crossing a lion and a tiger. Hercules who is officially the largest living cat on Earth is the uncle of the cubs, he loves hanging out with his handlers and his new tiny nephews at the sanctuary.

These liger cubs have a couple of years before they reach their uncle’s size , thankfully. Until then they manage to have fun and to enjoy all of the joys of being teeny tiny kittens.
