Male Liger vs Male Lions - Behavior Comparison

In the captivity, male lions show some unique behaviors as compared to other wild cats. The same is true about the male ligers as well. Male lions during the early phase of their lives, like when they are cubs and immature males, they tend to be highly friendly. At this age of time, they like to be socialize, the give a greater acceptance for the environment around them.

The same is about young ligers as well. When they are cubs, they are highly socialized. They love to play, they permit acceptance and they respond in a positive way to the environment around them.

But when the male lions grow older within the captivity, they become more territorial. Their acceptance for the new attributes starts to minimize. In other words they become less tolerant. More specifically they start to become more ferocious. This is where they become very dangerous. They demand to practice authority at their territories.

Even tigers behave in the similar way as well. According to one report each year about 10 people in United States get killed through tigers as their own exotic pets.

This kind of behavior is absent among the ligers. When they grow mature, they still like to be socialized. They respond to the trainers. They become more playful. They empower others to come and utilize their territorial traits etc. They may become sober at the higher ages, but they use to show a very mild personality. They are more tolerant and they are highly responsive to their trainers.

Therefore, ligers tend to have mild personality and they are not as much ferocious as compared to the lions when they grow older.
