Lions and Tigers produce Tigons and Ligers (depending upon if a Tiger of Lion was the father); and although most cross species “mules” have fertility PROBLEMS (due to difficulty swapping the DNA between mom and dad to make reproductive cells) they can and DO produce offspring. For example a Tigon was bred to a Tiger to produce a Ti-Tigon.
In captivity where the breeding was almost forced but never in the wild..........

True enough, considering that the lions and tigers ranges no longer intersect. But the statement was that such offspring were incapable of reproduction.
Coyotes have wolf and dog genes from fertile hybrids.
