Wayne the Liger - Liger Profile

Wayne the liger is a male liger who was born during the year 2008 at TigerWorld Animal Sanctuary (A Reputable Animal Rescue Center). This Animal Sanctuary is located at Rockwell, North Carolina, United States of America. Wayne was given birth by a three your old tigress. It is very rare among the tigresses to give birth by that much younger. Even though Wayne the liger was rejected by her mother and it was bottle-fed by the caretakers, it still looked in good health when he was a cub. It is also very common for the female tigers to abandon their cubs on their first birth. After the abandonment by its mother, Wayne was handed over to the animal caretakers at TigerWorld Big Cat Animal Sanctuary.
