History

In the first litter of tiligers, the sire - Kahun - was a white Bengal tiger (Panthera tigris tigris) and the dam - Beauty - was a liger. Five cubs were born to that litter - four male and one female - named Tanyaro, Yun Yi, Monique, and two others that were moved to other facilities.

On 7 March 2013, a second set of tiliger cubs were again born at The Garold Wayne Interactive Zoological Park in Wynnewood, Oklahoma. In this event, the sire - Noah - was a Siberian tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) and the dam - Lizzy - was a liger. Three cubs were born to that litter.

Valley of the Kings in Sharon, Wisconsin is home to a female tiliger named Ti-ler.
