Aren't tigers supposed to eat pigs? That's like that snake they got to live with the hamster.

Well maybe it's a problem with domestication or something... either that or the tiger is waiting until they get really fat. An investment.
that is weird...

Or maybe tigers are just that easy to fool.

The tigers aren't stupid (although they might be), many animals will take on other babies. We've had a cow that nursed a goat, and our dog once nursed some fox cubs (are they called cubs?) when they're mother was killed (not by us we capture them alive and send them to a zoo) and a few kittens. It's just because animals, unlike us, do everything on instinct instead of intelligence, their maternal instincts will cause them to nurse almost anything.

h'yeah- I've heard of a dog raise a tiger cub before! (or was it a wolf pup/cub)
i dont think the tigers stupid...i'm gonna agree with Harie, its an investment. Although thats a great picture.
