Explanation:
Lions and tigers can interbreed because they have enough genetic similarities to allow it. Nevertheless, their chromosome counts do not match evenly. As a result, only one sex of offspring from the pairing is typically fertile (females are fertile, and males are sterile)

Answer: The lines between two species are traditionally drawn when they cannot reproduce successfully. These images of a male lion, tiger, "tigon," and "liger" seem to confuse the issue. Although they rarely meet in the wild, lions and tigers are still so closely related that they are able to interbreed, and in captivity they occasionally do. But successful interbreeding is the key, and the hybrid offspring are usually sterile and short-lived.
