Not a SHAT because the male parent usually comes first: a LIGER is specifically the offspring of a male lion and a female tiger. If the male parent is the tiger and the female parent is a lion, the offspring is called a TIGON.

So a SHAT would have a ram for a father, and a female goat for a mother.
