Zookeeper Feeds Tiger, Finds Mother Biting Cub: Is It a 'Baby-Snatching' Skill Deficiency?
Cat owners who have watched 'Animal Planet' probably have an innate fear of ferocious creatures like tigers. However, tigers in zoos are relatively safe for owners now, mainly because of the good protective measures.
Today, Dr. Xiao Ming will share the story of the tiger mom and her little tiger cub with everyone. A zookeeper manages an area with a lovely female tiger that gave birth to a cute little tiger cub.
We know that tigers are large cat species. Cat owners who have watched 'Animal Planet' should have seen cat mothers carrying their kittens in their mouths. And kittens bitten on the back of the neck by cat mothers will also be very obedient.
Tiger mothers actually, like cat mothers, will carry their kittens while moving. However, this time, the zookeeper was preparing to feed the tiger mother when he noticed something was wrong. The tiger mother was biting her little tiger cub. The zookeeper thought it was 'abuse' of the child and was about to step forward to take a look, but it turned out to be a mess.
It turned out that the tiger mother was not 'abusing' her little tiger, but her skill of carrying her kittens was not yet at the full point. It seems she still needs to practice. The zookeeper was immediately amused by the little tiger's lifeless appearance and exclaimed how cute it was. Dr. Xiao Ming also laughed, it's really difficult for a first-time tiger. Haha!
Little tiger: Mom, do you want me to go by myself?
Dr. Xiao MingKittens are bitten on the back of the neck by cat mothers after being born, so cat owners will find that when kittens are making a fuss, grabbing them by the back of the neck will make them immediately quiet.
However, this method only applies to small kittens, for adult cats, the changes in weight and physique are no longer suitable for being grabbed by the back of the neck, which will harm them. Also, it's best not to use this method for unfamiliar kittens to prevent being bitten.
