Meet Apollo, the world’s largest cat – a cross between a lion and a tiger with incredible size and strength

Meet Apollo, the world’s largest cat, a lion-tiger crossbreed that has captured the attention of many. Weighing a whopping 319 kgs and with the ability to reach a speed of 40 miles an hour in just a few steps, this incredible feline is truly a sight to behold.

Recently, a video was posted by wildlife conservationist Kody Antle and social media personality Mike Holston, known as The Real Tarzann, showing Apollo taking a stroll in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. As they walk, Mike comments on the sheer size and strength of the liger, stating that he believes Apollo would “eat everything in sight.

This is the biggest cat I've ever seen! Look at those Paws! : r/oddlyterrifying

Apollo’s size is truly impressive. His neck is so large that neither Kody nor Mike can wrap their arms around it, and his teeth are said to be as big as a human’s middle finger. His tongue is the size of an adult’s forearm, and his lungs are estimated to be as big as a human torso.

Ligers are mostly found in zoos and are known for their massive size, weighing up to 360 kgs, which is almost double the weight of a lion or tiger. They can grow up to 12 feet long and stand over six feet tall, making them the largest big cat in the world.

Apollo’s size has caused many to compare him to the sabre-tooth tiger, which went extinct over 42,000 years ago. Some even joke that they now just need to find the rest of his furry mammoth friends.

While Apollo’s size and power are truly impressive, it’s important to remember that he is still a wild animal and should be treated with respect and caution. His incredible size serves as a reminder of the beauty and power of nature and the importance of preserving it for future generations to enjoy.
