So, a Lion, a Tiger and a Bear walk into a bar…
Actually, it is an absurd start for a joke because in real life those animals would never end up in the same place. Firstly, because each of their natural habitats is so far apart from the others’. Secondly, because they are animals of different species and are unlikely to be friends.
However, in Noah’s Ark Animal Sanctuary (NAAS) in Locust Grove, Georgia an American black bear, an African lion and a Bengal tiger have spent over fifteen years living in perfect harmony!
Meet the three inseparable pals — Shere Khan, the tiger; Leo, the lion; and Baloo, the bear.
Their friendship blossomed fifteen years ago when NAAS rescued the three little cubs.
The poor baby animals were less than one year old when the rescuers found them in tiny captivities in the basement. It happened during a drug raid on a home in Atlanta, Georgia.
The lion, the tiger, and the bear do everything together – eat, sleep and of course play! They even give each other kisses.
They have different personalities, but they are happy to live as one family.
Thank you, NAAS team, for saving these beautiful animals!
