Cute Mother. SFW.
  • Unbefreakinlievable.
  • Ahem.
  • Was just working on that myself, fishtick. Rather than Mother of the Year, Fraud of 2004.
  • I was all set to say how cute that was. Bah humbug. Boo to illegal tiger breeding, also.
  • Yes, boo to ANY who breeds with a tiger!!!
  • At least they are breeding tigers.. those are getting rare in the wild. The invisible hand of capitalism is trying to work it's magic here, 'cept laws and red tape getting in the way. Photos are so cute though, I almost don't care for the reality.
  • I certainly don't care for the reality either.
  • At least they are breeding tigers.. those are getting rare in the wild. But they're breeding tigers to sell to China for slaughtering, so Chinese people can buy tiger bits to put the jade in their stalk. That's insane.
  • Tigers are wasted on these people.
  • It's only with a measurable[economic] value that tigers can persist. As a leather shoe wearer, and dairy produce consumer the logic is inescapable. The existing actual real choice is farm them or hunt them to extinction. Right now there is no other option to save species in the wild. Breeding them to sell is wholly logical and fully justified from a conservation point of view. Immoral? Well probably in my view. Until and unless people who profess to care do something other than professing how much they care, breeding and [controlled] hunting is the best way to protect threatened habitats and endangered species. The greatest benefit the Trophy animal has is that people care. But the increasingly rare habitats/ecologies they need to exist in must be saved also. The whale[Trophy animal] can save the plankton. We do more harm to the environment by eating chicken than this zoo or it's breeding program. So simple criticisms don't surface. It is very sane. Sadly sanity and empathy don't get along all the time. I thought they were cute pics, the story behind is a lot darker and deeper. But however 'purty' tigers are, there is a lot more at stake.
  • tyger, tyger, with clawed mitts we sell your parts and steal your kits we give you piglets clothed in stripes for our amusement at your plight
  • If you walk on grass, don't complain about the death of non-sentients. I am now heading back to the Berners-Lee pits to find something as cute as this should have been. Though with much less room for passionate disagreement. Tigers, like pigs, are sentient so complain.
  • Tigers, bears... I shudder to think what people do to lions.
  • /applause
  • What are you applauding? The guy lost his arm, may lose his life. Well done tiger? Is that it? The tiger don't give a shit ffs. So tell me Koko what is this /applause? Of course it's possible I missed the point, if not then know this monkeyfilter, I laugh when matadors get gored. Or an American* tourist dies when running with the bulls. No, he wasn't running with them he was falling under them. Twit. *Sometimes a Brit. But never a local, they just sell pop.
  • I smelled a rat at 'rare tiger triplets'. Google 'normal size litter tiger' and you find that tigers ordinarily have 2-4 cubs at a time.
  • MonkeyFilter: Twit. Yay tiger! (He said from the relative safety of not-being-in-the-tiger's-fucking-face)
  • So tell me Koko what is this /applause? Of course it's possible I missed the point... I am not Koko, nor will I presume to speak for her, but... "the victim entered an area forbidden to the public and tried to take a picture of the tiger with his mobile phone." Moral: Don't go where you shouldn't and keep your goddam camera-phone to yourself, lest your arm get ripped the hell off. What's the sound of applauding a tiger with one hand?
  • *shakuhachi flute* Woah!
  • Tiger, tiger, burning bright, In the zooparks of the night! What immortal hand, what acts, Put your skins on piglets' backs?
  • What's the sound of applauding a tiger with one hand? Sadly I think it goes a little like this: AAAAGHHHHHH!! My empathy for this fellow probably stems from that I could possibly almost maybe perhaps might imagine doing something like it. I hope his phone was insured, or simply very cheap. I seem to have surfeit of commas again. I have bags of the bloody things stinking up the place.
  • MonkeyFilter: I almost don't care for the reality....I certainly don't care for the reality either. MonkeyFilter: What's the sound of applauding a tiger with one hand? Too bad the lovely story isn't true or lovely. I'm all in favor of evolution. You want to win the Darwin award and rid the gene pool of stupid, go ahead and enter the tiger enclosure with your cell phone. (or roll down the windows to feed the bears--duh) Just another instance of our amazing lack of respect for Ma Nature.
  • How about this one?
  • She's probably praying none of the other dogs see this.
  • Totally photoshopped. Those tigers are full grown for one. And that's not a dog, it's a cow. A giant space cow with laser tongue and a portfolio rich in tech stocks.
  • It's a Border Cowlie! And alien fanged Tigarz from the Planet Stripz
  • Monkeyfilter: A giant space cow with laser tongue and a portfolio rich in tech stocks. Yes, it's Tagline Tuesday here at the Pete and TUM show.
  • TUM: Good evening ladies and gentlemen, why hello pete! Say pete! pete: Yes TUM? TUM: You take a drink every once in awhile don't you? pete: No, I don't bother with it at all TUM: You mean to say you don't even take a teenie weenie little drink every now and then? pete: No, I don't touch it at all TUM: Well that's fine, then fine, hold this til I finish the act will you? (HANDS FLASK TO PETE) . . . My first number this evening is a little song I wrote myself - That is I didn't write it ALL myself, another someone wrote the words and someone wrote the music . . . but I happened to be in the room at the time. . . I know quite a bit about music . . .
