Just out of interest, how much would YOU expect these to be then Rory? Bearing in mind they are rare and they're not kept in private hands (to my knowledge) except maybe in private zoo's (with zoo license).

You should see what WE'VE been offered!!! lol

How on earth would you house such a thing!!! i suppose if you can afford to house and feed 2 leions then the £200000 isnt an issue!!

Well to be honest gg,

The £60k price of 2 years ago were l think well priced for the lions.Although they have been available from all over the world at differing prices.

Also considering the range of tigers they produce on a fairly regular basis in 3 different colours, these being the normal, white and of course the much favoured orange tabby.The orange tabby in fact l would have said was warranted a higher price in comparison to the white tigers and the white lions.

All the prices of the tigers and lions have gone upwards in the last few years since the Arabs have expressed an interest, and these prices in Europe are surging upwards because of Thailand wanting to site them within their parks.

So yes GG, l would say £60k the pair is an ample price.

i'm suprised the tabby is preferred to the white. Personally i think they look a little..bizarre. Mind u i think the ghost aka snow white(is it?) tigers look weird as well. Don't know why but i always think they have a sickly insipid look about them

I just posted Lion costs in a thread about big cats.

100k = VERY expensive, but a tame, unrelated pair of kits...

I've got to get out of this bloody city and back to the space of the country where I can let my collection grow!!
