Young chimpanzee trained to feed tiger cubs

A young chimpanzee, trained to feed tiger cubs, has been doing so for over a year now.

This image could be a scene straight out of The Jungle Book! Dodo, a young chimpanzee, has been trained to feed tiger cubs at Samut Prakarn Crocodile Farm and Zoo in Thailand and has been doing so for over a year now.

The feedings have become somewhat of a tourist attraction; many people travel to the zoo just to get a photo of Dodo feeding one of the zoo's young cubs.

Reportedly, Dodo has never been frightened of tigers and so his trainer decided to teach him how to feed them - and he's being doing so ever since!
