Australian Shepherd Filling in as Parent to One-Month-Old Tiger Cubs - C...


 
Published on Mar 10, 2017

Three
rare Malayan tiger cubs, all female, have been cared for by Cincinnati
Zoo & Botanical Garden’s nursery staff since they were born on
February 3, 2017, and ignored by their mother. Their care team now
includes the Zoo’s four-legged, resident nursery companion and former
nanny to several Zoo babies, Blakely the Australian shepherd. The
six-year-old super dog has been called into action to provide snuggling,
comfort and a body to climb.

The cubs, named “Chira” (because she
was treated by a chiropractor), “Batari” (means goddess) and “Izzy”
(means promised by God), would have received similar cues from their
mom. Since being with her is not an option, Blakely is the next best
thing. His baby-rearing resume includes experience with cheetahs, an
ocelot, a takin, a warthog, wallabies, skunks, and bat-eared foxes.
