In a zoo in California , a
mother tiger gave birth to a rare
set of triplet tiger
cubs. Unfortunately, due to complications in the pregnancy,
the cubs were born
prematurely and due to their tiny size, died shortly after birth.
The mother tiger after
recovering from the delivery, suddenly
started to decline in
health, although physically she was fine.
The veterinarians felt
that the loss of her litter had caused
the tigress to fall into
a depression. The doctors decided that if the
tigress could surrogate
another mother's cubs, perhaps she would improve.
After checking with many
other zoos across the country, the
depressing news was that
there were no tiger cubs of the right age to
introduce to the mourning
mother. The veterinarians decided to try
something that had never
been tried in a zoo environment.
Sometimes a mother of one
species will take on the care of a
different species. The
only "orphans" that could be found quickly, were
a litter of wiener pigs.
The zoo keepers and vets wrapped the piglets in
tiger skin and placed the
babies around the mother tiger.
Now, please
tell me one more time ..........
