[QUOTE][url]http://www.weirdasianews.com/2011/11/02/thailand-chimp-feeds-tiger-cubs-zoo/[/url] Dodo is a most unusual two-and-a-half-year-old male primate. The caring chimp looks after the tiger cubs that come and go at the Samut Prakarn Crocodile Farm and Zoo, which is located some 25 miles east of Bangkok. [IMG]http://www.cbsnews.com/i/tim/2011/07/30/extra_730_ChimpFeedsCubs_copy_480x360.jpg[/IMG] Initially, his trainers sought to challenge his capacities and were inspired by the fact that the chimp exhibited no fear of the cubs, which range in age from three weeks to five months. Diligently, they worked with Dodo until he picked up the skill of feeding them by bottle. “It wasn’t difficult as he knows how to hold the bottle. I just taught him how to hold it and stay with the cub. I have been teaching him every day so that he can do it,” says trainer Sirinaj, who has worked at the zoo for two decades. The biggest problem with Dodo is his mischievous nature. He needs to be watched when he is caring for the cubs as he is easily distracted from his tasks as nurturer and would rather play with them. When the cubs get too big for Dodo to handle, they are moved to a more suitable area and new cubs come in to replace them. Dodo is always busy with new mouths to feed. Hey Dodo, keep up the good work! [video=youtube;eH6_JCxocBs]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eH6_JCxocBs[/video][/QUOTE]
This is very remarkable. [editline]3rd November 2011[/editline] The chimp tried to drink from bottle at very end haha.
Bawwwwwwwwww
I always find it weird the way a young chimp's movement is really similar to a toddler's.

I read the title as "Thailand Chimp Feeds On Tiger Cubs at Zoo" was not expecting cuteness [editline]5th November 2011[/editline] [quote]When the cubs get too big for Dodo to handle, they are moved to a more suitable area and new cubs come in to replace them. Dodo is always busy with new mouths to feed.[/quote] I give it about a week before PETA is up in arms about how the zoo is using the chimp for slave labour.
god fucking damn, that shit's cute.
Title is confusing, don't know why I thought a chimp was feeding other animals a dead tiger cub..
I thought that a chimp was eaten by tiger cubs.
But will he end up feeding the tigers in a different way?

Primates are very articulate. My avatar is a picture I took on Phi-Phi island in 2007 of a monkey drinking coke
