Even Bulldogs Think Piglets Are Cute
Wow, that is cute; it doesn’t get much cuter either. The pictures that you’re looking at were taken at the Lehnitz animal sanctuary in Berlin (Germany), where 8 year old French Bulldog ‘Baby’ has taken to raising a group of wild boar piglets. When the piglets arrived at the sanctuary, they were just 3 days old and freezing; immediately Baby began to snuggle to snuggle them and keep them warm. Officials at the sanctuary believe that the piglets’ mother was killed by a hunter, but their new mom has the experience to get the job done. Apparently overflowing with maternal instincts, Baby has raised racoons, cats, and many other animals in the past; so no one was surprised when she began to care for the new babies. The babies are currently being bottle-fed, with officials planning to release them into a reserve once they are able to feed themselves.
