tiger triplets
This is amazing. The other night me and my friends, being high-brow intellectuals, spent a couple of hours in a Brighton restaurant arguing over who would win a fight between a tiger and a lion. We did not, however, discuss what would happen if a tiger met a dog, thinking it fairly unlikely that such an event would merit debate. But the Guardian today shows just what would happen if such a meeting occurred.
To quote the paper:
A Chinese dog has become the surrogate mother of tiger triplets born at a zoo in the country's eastern Shandong province.
The mongrel bitch called Huani is suckling the tiger cubs, imaginatively named One, Two and Three by staff at Jinan Paomaling Wild Animal World, because their mother rejected them.
The zoo manager, Chen Yucai, said: "The family is getting along well and seems to enjoy each other."

The other day me and a friend were discussing philosophy - specifically Kant's concept of the natural state of man versus Rousseau's - and eventually came to the conclusion that Rousseau was better looking, although Kant is my dead European philosopher boyfriend (born centuries apart on different continents - ours is a tragic love).
