"Male ligers are sterile. Female ligers are often fertile and can be mated to a tiger resulting in ti-liger offspring or to a lion resulting in li-liger offspring."
Last time I looked, I was a female!

| There seems to be some variance of opinion on the matter. ( Hybrid sterility, not whether you're female, CF. ) http://www.sierrasafarizoo.com/animals/liger.htm
"All ligers are presumed to be born sterile. This is not unusual for hybrids. Mules are the result of breeding a horse with a donkey and are also presumed to be sterile, although there is an occasional, extremely rare, exception".
Insofar as I've been able to ascertain, your site's "often" is really "once that we know of". | |

because I like snow, Human or animals don;t kill them (too my knowledge), and I would be able to catch whatever I want (mice and rabbits and stuff)

| I think I would be an owl. I've always wanted to be nocturnal. Though I suppose I couldn't stay a vegetarian.
It might be fun to be one of the bryn mawr squirrels. I think they lead an interesting life.

Lol, that cracked me up 
(I have a sick mind)
What animal would I be? A duck maybe. Or some type of falcon - failing that, an owl or something.

That's right. One of my favorite shows as a kid. Just fantastic to be able to come and go as she pleased. Not subjugated to either Heaven or Earth and untroubled by the path of light or the path of darkness. | |
