Just to warn you this clip may have some scenes that some people might find upsetting.

Nature while it can be cruel, can also be beautiful.

It may be an old story but will the leopard get child benefit?

Thats what makes it different.

It's similar to the lion and baby antelope story, and I always find these tales a little sinister. It makes me think that they might be really doing a bit of farming and fattening their prey up.

I hadn't realised it had been a story, just thought I'd pass on this fascinating clip which was posted on another forum.

Oh well.

Unfortunately the baby died during the night.

Really?

How do you know, has it been followed up, I don't really want to click on the Heil link. But I would like to read more about it.

Aww thank you for that.

I'm not a pet lover or anything like that but that story really made me a little

That's amazing. I lol'd when he bashed the cub on the head with his paw.

I suppose the way the tiger sees it, its got a nice little companion and if it decides it no longer likes the cub for some reason, it'll make a tasty midnight snack.
