KatieParker 3 years agoWhat I think is people should stop breeding animals that normally would not breed in nature. Thebabies that turn out well may be sold or exhibited, and those that don't wind up at sanctuaries if thereis room, or dig neglected, or dying. There's a reason most of these are "found" only in a captivity.

HeatherOgden 3 years agoLigers are a terrible thing for humans to create. They suffer from gigantism Their body never stopsgrowing and becomes too much for the heart to handle. So although all the animals are cute....theyaren't exactly healthy

AaydenDye 3 years agoJaglion pic is not a jaglion. That is a melanistic jaguar aka Black Panther. And the beefalo picture us abison. Many of these are real but those two I know for a fact are not. Come on boredpanda. I amdissapointed in these misinformations. You can do better.
