CANEY, KANSAS: Three tiger cubs at a Kansas zoo are getting some maternal care from an unlikely source Isabella the golden retriever.
The tiger cubs were born on Sunday at Safari Zoological Park but their mother soon stopped caring for them. Isabella had just weaned her own puppies and was able to step in.
Zoo owner Tom Harvey says, "The timing couldn't have been any better."
He says it's unusual for dogs to care for tiger cubs, but it does happen. Isabella licks, cleans and feeds the cubs just like her own puppies.
