It is absolutely amazing that the Tiger’s instincts didn’t kick in and cause the big cat to feast on the piglets.  These piglets should consider themselves fortunate.  On the other hand, having worked on a large hog farm and seeing many strange things indeed, I’m surprised the big sow pig didn’t eat the tigers. m

Sai Mai, a 26-month-old female tiger, plays with baby pigs at a zoo in Thailand’s Chonburi province, 80 kilometers (50 miles) east of Bangkok, on May 7, 2004?. The Royal Bengali tigress was born in captivity and breast-fed by a female pig for four months after her birth.

The zoo is trying to boost visitor numbers by teaching domestic animals such as pigs, and wild animals such as tigers, to live together in harmony from an early age.
