Hercules the liger has 3 more brothers from the same litter of ligers and has 1 further brother from another litter born to the same parents. At the time of the birth Hercules the liger had 3 more brother siblings born with him. The names of these siblings of Hercules the liger include Sinbad the Liger, Vulcan the Liger and Zeus the liger. All of these ligers are still alive as of 2014 and they are more than ten (10) years old.

Among all the siblings (all male ligers) Hercules is the biggest of them all with a weight of more than 922 pounds.

A very interesting fact about Hercules the liger and its siblings is that they never had a sister or a female liger as their sibling.

However; during summers they come together for few days and love to interact with one another. The best thing which all the siblings enjoy is to swim together. Remember ligers are very good swimmers.
