It was during 2006, when Hercules the liger was declared the biggest cat on earth and China York appeared along with Hercules the liger as its trainer and caretaker. Hercules seemed to be very much calm and associated with China York throughout the pictures. China York was seen standing along with Hercules the liger and also tempting Hercules the liger to catch a piece of meat from the height of at least 11 to 15 feet above. Truly for both Hercules the liger and China York, it was one of the greatest of moments.

She even allowed those school children to actually pet a liger as well.
China York and Hercules the liger have regularly become the part of King Richards Faire which takes place at Carver, Massachusetts, USA. Hercules the liger and China York are both appearing at King Richards' Faire for at least last 10 to 12 year.

China York is a very dedicated and hardworking liger trainer. Ligers love her so much that you can even see her pictures in which she is having a ride on the top of ligers, swimming with ligers, kissing the ligers and even hugging & cuddling them. All of these trust in between a big cat such as liger and a human requires a lot of skill, professional handling and of course a love for caring. China York has all these skills and that's the key reason that ligers which she has raised have developed a greater trust with her.
