Tigons don't get as big as Ligers because they don't lack a "pituitary "shut off growth" gene like Ligers. (Tigons are male tiger, female lion children, btw. Ligers are the reverse.)"

Ligers are supposed to have a particularly laid-back, mellow disposition. I wonder if that's the case with the tigon.

I only found one source on this, so take it for what it is, but according to this site, Tigons are very, very aggressive creatures.
