I would bet on the tiger



So, apparently, in California a tiger cub and a young dolphin have become friends at a Six Flags Amusement park.

I don't know whether or not the tiger just wanted to eat the dolphin or if they actually dig each other.

But I want to believe it is true.

How.
Fucking.
Adorable.

I cannae match the appeal of this particular odd couple. I do however have regular visits from a wild fox who will eat food out of the same bowls as my dogs on occasion.

Neither dogs nor fox make a sound, they are perfectly in harmony and all be it brief, they accept each other.

Its good to see.

perhaps they could have babies that would fuse the power of the tiger with the speed and intelligence of the dolphin... Run for your life sharks! and also see going humans!

Avitable said...

I will also believe that they just want to be friends.

Maybe they could hook up with that octopus that keeps trying to escape. I guess that's in another place, but they would make a helluva trio.

That is precious!!! I am happy to see animals making friends!!! VERY CUTE!!!

HAPPY TUESDAY!!!

I'm pretty sure that tiger is simply after some seafood casserole.

I'm craving tuna for lunch.

Jimmy - that's pretty cool.

Jiggs - it would be the perfect hybrid. What would you call it though? A Dolger? A Tiphin?

Avitable - That's the best scenario.

MikeB - Those things are evil!

Michelle - Precious would be the word for it.

Heff - A see-food diet, eh?

Uncool - so is the tigger.

Faiqa said...

SO CUTE.

He totally wants to eat him.

(The dolphin.. wants to eat... the tiger. Never trust a dolphin.)

Slyde said...

maybe they will mate.

wouldnt it be cool to see a tiger swimming at you going 40 mph?

Candy's daily Dandy said...

That Tiger wants some sushi. You know it!

Verdant Earl said...

Faiqa - Oh, dolphins terrify me. Anything that swims does actually. Michael Phelps? Horrifying!

Slyde - It would be cool seeing a tiger swimming 40 mph at you. Not me.

Candy - I've heard raw Dolphin tastes like chicken. ;)

That is ADORABLE

i am the diva said...

don't you find that, as a cat person, you can totally visualize yourself living with a large cat like a tiger or a cheetah or something? yeah, just more of them to love!! probably need a really big litter box, though

Verdant Earl said...

Jenn - :)

Diva - I want a big cat in the worst way. That video of the lion that was raised by humans, released in the wild and then re-united with the human...gets me every time.
