Why Can't We All Just Get Along??!!
A friend of mine told me about this story. I don't know if it's true, if the tiger was drugged or someone deserves an award for their photoshop-ing skills but nevertheless, it's an interesting story and exemplifies the whole point of this post.
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, they 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 weanling pigs.
The zoo keepers and vets wrapped the piglets in tiger skin and placed the babies around the mother tiger. Would they become cubs or pork chops?
I didn't believe my eyes either when I first read this story. Yesterday, when I returned from the memorial service at the WTC where I laid flowers for my brother-in-law, a dear friend and for all the poor souls who perished that day, I opened the email containing this story. A friend sent it. She thought it would cheer me up....it did.

The maternal instinct is the most powerful force on this planet.Could it be why we actually turn on each other instead of support one another? It is more powerful than any religious belief. Saw a political show today talking about if(this show was about when not if} terrorists would ever hit our schools like they did in Russia and how we{the US} would react. We ,would be that mom from the Terminator.All of a sudden the stupid petty differences would be gone ...then look ooooout! SO SORRY you lost your brother in law . Was he a fireman or was his job in one of the towers? I'll never forget when that second plane hit- I was watching it live - the "punch in the face " realization of what just happened.Can't even imagine what it must have been like for your family. Glad you shared that , it explains why you appear to be so bitter (and you have every right to be). I, like you try to always use or find humour to get by, sometimes it comes out wrong, people that haven't been thru a tragedy don't get it . But I do.xxo
Beckey,
Thanks ever so much for your comments and for reading. I love it when you comment, it really makes my day.
My brother-in-law was a fireman. But I'm not bitter, I'm a comedian. We commemt on life and make fun of it. Go to my website www.sherrydavey.com Check out the video clips page and you'll see just how not bitter I am.
cheers and many many thanks for reading and writing to me,
Sherry

Once in a while I write a post that ticks off the readers because I don't let parents off the hook as easily as others do. And you know humor is used to convey real sentiment. Comedians are the only people left, outside of political pundits (and they have sponsors to worry about) who openly discuss society and relationships anymore. We tell you how we really feel and I truly believe that society needs to see itself reflected in this unforgiving mirror.
Modern parents, and people in general, have all sorts of excuses they use to pardon their behavior. I chose to lampoon that behavior and make us all aware of it rather than sweep it under the carpet of 'support everyone'. Political correctness is also a form of censorship, I also abhor those who force it on us like that other blogger. I call them PC bullies....they're everywhere my friend.
Watch the next election in the US, you'll see them like mad.
Cheers,
your faithful blogger,
Sherry
Please accept my condolences over your brother-in-law.
About the tiger and its piglet cubs, I actually saw the exact same thing in a "tiger farm" in Thailand. It's true -- it really can be done.
Just keep throwing scenerios out there I can probably beat them all. Thought the piano was too big to put in my childs mouth but somehow ,when he was teething managed to chew all of the ends of the keys So we now have a piano that you can't sit at if you have nylons on. The question is who needs the IQ test him or me? Glad to hear your not bitter ,tried to watch your video but my computer is to old and tired. Getting a new one soon ,I'll check it out later (and I'll let you know if you are funny-ha) Hey ,its ok with me if you get pissed off at people .I'm tired of all the P.C. bullshit too and the hypocisy that goes along with it .
hi i know this was posted quite a while back but if anyone is reading this. I am sure that this story is quite possibly true as it is done with many animals.
my boyfriend is a cattle breeder and sometimes when the calf dies the mother will not take to another calf so what they do is they take the skin from the calf that died (the cows baby) and wrap it around the replacement calf. the smell of the calf skin will mean the mother will take to the new calf as if it where her own. its simply all about animial instincts. :)
