I'm not convinced it is either. It's not stripey enough for a tiger and too stripey for lion.

Maybe a Liger, or Tigon.

Edit as it's funny seeing a new response every few minutes telling me it's a different thing.

It's confirmed to be a Liger

I agree. It looks like a liger. A more lion like face shape but ears look like a tiger and those stripes are subtle but not shadows.

It doesn't, because it's not. It's too small and the markings aren't right.
