	Congolese Spotted Lion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Congolese Spotted Lion or more correctly lijagulep is the hybrid of a leopard/jaguar cross (a jagulep or lepjag) with a lion.
		The female jaguleps had refused to mate with a leopard, but one female was mated to a lion and produced several litters.
		One of the offspring was exhibited in London in 1908 and was claimed to be a type of lion.
