Squirrel raised by cat, learns how to purr

**Roma_Victrix** · November 27, 2013, 05:06 PM

Just when you thought you knew everything...

...you see a video like this. There's something about nurturing from a young age that just simply builds trust across all species. Like that guy who raised a polar bear and now treats it like a son, a part of the family even at the dinner table!

Or even stranger, the man who nursed a wounded crocodile back to life and became friends with it, hugging it and wrestling with it on a daily basis.

One is speechless after that, considering how we as humans only tend to associate such affection within the kingdom of mammals. When the guy tried releasing the crocodile (named Pocho) back into the wild, it literally refused and followed him back home.

Well that does happen, except a lot of those people end up getting killed by their exotic pets.

Personally I want a Cheetah. All big cats can be trained, but the cheetah can be tamed.

My great-grandfather was killed by a polar when he was 12.

Beware of middle life crisised bears.

How do you know the female cat not keeping the squirrel as a reserve food?

I remember Charles Darwin had recorded that Yaghan people kept their women as reserve food during winter when there was a food shortage; he further explained that women were eaten before dogs because dogs were more useful in daily life than women.

NO I AM NOT SEXUAL BIAS, THAT IS JUST LIFE!!!

How is he your great-grandpa then? If he died when he was 12?

**Condottiere 40K** · November 28, 2013, 12:04 PM

The bear was twelve.

His great grandfather probably was eaten by a P. bear.

**Condottiere 40K** · November 28, 2013, 01:08 PM

A middle aged polar bear.

**Roma_Victrix** · November 28, 2013, 03:45 PM

Or a middle aged pedobear.

**Condottiere 40K** · November 29, 2013, 02:05 AM

Boy, I bet that bear was disappointed with his great grandfather.

**hellheaven1987** · November 29, 2013, 03:26 AM

I bet that P. bear is female.

I think he might be a modern descendant of the Gummi bears, having candy and driving a van.

Eaten by a gorilla is a better anecdote for your family than died of prostate cancer because he was overly afraid of sodomy.

I want a polar bear like that guy. It's like a Labrador but bigger.

I don't think a Polar Bear is like that.

I actually know a lady who worked with Cheetahs. Cheetahs are very shy and very tame, they don't like to fight because they've been on the loosing side of evolution for the past 12000 years.
