A little Dachshund is playing surrogate mother to a baby tiger cub after the cub was rejected by its mother at a German zoo. You just gotta love these amazing stories. These animals don’t look at each other’s breed, they see in each other a need and a need fulfilled. They offer love and comfort, care and nurturing. Why can’t people take a lesson here?

My AWWWW for the day! How amazing that animals can get along so well, and help each other out when in need, when us humans, who are supposed to be intelligent beings cannot.
Sent this to my “son” who was our foreign exchange student years ago in Germany. Hope he has additional videos I can post about these two.
So sad to read in the news that this adorable little dog has been hit by a vehicle and killed! So now the tiger has lost TWO parents.
I misspoke. The first dachshund, Monster, adopted the cub but was then killed. The second dachshund, has taken over mothering the little cub.
