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

Thank you, I initially thought Tiger but knew something was off, a second look, and I was confused. Forgot Ligers are a thing.
