From what I have study a tiger can mate witha lion.
I tiger can not mate with any other animal to produce off spring that at least what speacilist have stated.
Now a leapord and a jaguar can mate as well.
I heard that a leapord may be able to mate with a lion due to it being closer realitives to a leapord thena tiger though even that has been thought impossiable by many speacialists.

Hmm well I've found multiple different pictures of leopons. So if someone wanted to fabricate an animal they did a relatively convincing job.
It should be impossiable though. Though it been shown that a leapord has the potential to concieve offspring from a lion and vice versa it was never proven that I know of. They also do not interract like a tiger and lion do. Tiger and lions being so closly related will mate in zoo and captivity however it very unnaterial, but does happen. For a lion to mate with a leapord they would have to be forced and that just mean .

Lioness suckling leopard or leopon cubs.
A couple more pictures of a grown leopon. But two are tiny and one is a repost from before.
And apparently there's a book written by the Director of Koshein Hanshin Park where they apparently successfully made lion x leopard hybrid animals.
