A tiger mother lost her cubs from premature labour. Shortly after she became depressed and her health declined, and she was diagnosed with depression. So they wrapped up piglets in tiger cloth, and gave them to the tiger. The tiger now loves these pigs and treats them like her babies.

Hugely Symbolic Gesture of the Day: Amid security concerns and republican protests, Queen Elizabeth II, decked in an emerald green ensemble, arrived in Dublin today for a historic visit dubbed by The Irish Times a “hugely symbolic gesture reflecting a new era in relations between the countries.” The visit is the first by a British monarch since the Republic declared independence.
Among other activities, the Queen laid a wreath in Dublin’s Garden of Remembrance — a memorial site dedicated to “those who gave their lives in the cause of Irish Freedom” — while the Irish Army band played “God Save The Queen.”
BBC News is live-blogging the visit over here.
