One-year-old twin ligers, a rare lion-tiger hybrid, Pingping and An'an frolic with each other in the Hainan Tropical Wildlife Park and Botanical Garden in Haikou city. The pair have become superstars in China's southernmost island province of Hainan after becoming the first ligers in the country to reach their first birthday. It is said that there are less than 10 ligers all over the world.
