Best Answer

Yes they do. The offspring are called ligers or tigons, depending on which parent was the lion and which parent was the tiger. Ligers are the result of a male lion cross bred with a female tiger, and a tigon (also known as a tiglon or tion) is the result of cross breeding between a male tiger and female lion. Ligers are the largest cat known while the tigon is around the size of a regular tiger or lion.
