HEART WARMING STORY

A forlorn tigress, heartbroken because her own cubs have died, is fooled into adopting a litter of piglets when zoo officials wrap them in tiger skins.

It is apparently common practice in Thailand for tigers to suckle pigs, and for pigs to adopt orphaned cubs.

...and later, when they grow out of their tiger-jammys, they make a great snack.

another disturbing aspect of this, is they had to skin a tiger to get the pig-jammas.

=O

the funny thing is that the tigress is probably thinking:

"silly humans. i pretend i'm fooled by their tricks, so that i can raise these piglets and have someone to share love with."
