Leopon – Leopard/Lioness
We have mentioned that the close genetic relationship between the various species of cats means that there are all sorts of possibilities for crossbreeding. The Leopon is the offspring of a male leopard and a lioness. With facial features that tend towards those of a lion, the resulting Leopon seems to present physical characteristics associated with its leopard parent breed. It is a unique animal to see in person, particularly the male, with its leopard print and lion’s mane.
