Awwwww Tiger and Piglets
 

I just saw this on the news and had to check it out. A Mama Tiger lost her cubs and was showing signs of sadness so this Zoo in Thailand brought in some baby pigs wrapped in tiger clothes. (I don't think its real skin) anyway the Mama Tiger is now happy because she has babies to take care of. So cute! See how can people say animals don't feel love? :)

Awesome story and pics though !! :thumbsup

"The picture is quite real. The story behind it isn't, however. This zoo in Thailand has been interchanging tiger cubs and piglets since before 1997. The milk from the sow is said to make the tiger cubs healthier, and the interaction between species apparently has a calming effect on both the tigers and the pigs. You can read about the practice here:
