The Tigress Gave Her Cubs to This Man, Then He Did Something Unbelievable

Usually, animals in the wild will try to stay well away from humans out of fear. So, when a tigress approached a lone man, he did not expect the unbelievable thing that she would ask of him. The wilderness has always been a magical place and one that Josef loved to explore. Situated in a small, rural village in Russia, Josef was born and raised alongside the magnificent forest which surrounded the village. But one day whilst out in the woods, Josef came across something that would change his life forever. Click on the video to find out more.

I had a similar event happen to me in Alaska but with a female brown bear with one cub, she was dying, and I took care of her cub until she was fully grown. But after she was grown and knew how to hunt she was more like a pet, just lived in the wild and visited my cabin almost every day. If she was there any predator that came anywhere near me and the cabin she'd huff and puff at them charging after them to get them away. Even one time when a Mountain Lion wanted to make a meal out of me she charged and attacked it. When she had three of her own cubs, she brought them to my cabin, was cool with me petting, and playing with them, and she never showed any sign of aggression to me or my dog. I don't think any wild animal should be put in cages, or otherwise trapped anywhere, you can have them as a pet, that's cool, just a pet that lives in the wild like they should. I lived in Alaska for six years, and a huge part of me wants to go back and she how she's doing, I was also living in the deep woods where hardly any people ever go, so she didn't have any fear of humans, but every other bear I seen there didn't seem to care much about me, or showed warning signs to get me to leave.

Let's be real he probably killed the mother because she was hunting him and didn't have the heart to leave the cubs to die so in order to not look like a douche for killing the mother because hunters are demonized by most people he fabricated and romanticized the story of what had happened, because to me a wild cat abandoning her cubs regardless of the state it's in is ludicrous.

This is so heart breaking (for the mother) and soothing at the same time. I couldn't control my tears of what the mother tiger did. I don't understand why some people still go for hunting and kill the animals when we have so much options outside. I really want the animals also to live in peace in their own place not having fear of humans. The earth belongs to them too and they form part of the nature.

[@MrMeow-iq7kq]

while I get you on that.... normally the tiger would have killed the hunter just for having looked at her funny, he was too close to where she was keeping the cubs. Humans have far more to fear when it comes to 1 on 1 matchups like that. She was a hunter herself and wouldn't have understood your sentiments.

[@haxkztasy]

There's something called: Nature Control. and at this time we have to do this due to Humans letting certain Animals die out and so other Animals infested Area's and became larger than they should have been and so destroying Nature cause of it, so we need Hunters in certain Area's to keep Nature in check and so these Animals dont completely destroy said Nature. reason why in Germany, Wolves are back introduced in Certain Forests, so they keep Animals like "Deer" in check, so they dont overpopulate, before Germany did this, they had Hunters doing what Wolves did back then, but Humans have pretty much killed all Wolves cause of Sheep Keeping and all that. so you cant just "Stop" Hunting, just cause you think that they should live in peace, there are certain Area's where we need Hunter's if we dont want Nature to be destroyed.

[@nicolefournel-hartery8187]

You know as a mother, had this happened to me. After, I had reached my home with the cubs, I would have quickly found someone to come with a dart, to try and save the mother's life. Bringing her to the vet, maybe she could have lived to raise her kids herself. My heart goes out to all of them, but honestly, there's nothing like a mothers love and upbringing.

[@camlacasse3760]

She probably already had sepsis and knew it.

[@deathsheir2035]

In her weakened state, after the hunter left, a bear could've gotten to her first.

[@sarahowens4458]

Tranqing her would have killed her. Her time must've been incredibly short otherwise she never would have given up her cubs.

[@evaneb6264]

Chances are even if he did so the mother was most likely was in a far too weakened state that being knocked out with the tranq dart wouldn't wake up an just die in her sleep. Which in humane terms would have been good but there was a greater chance that she tried to stay alive as long as she could to try an hope she would recover an be able to raise an teach them enough to be able to live on there own. But when Josef who clearly could have easily killed her an instead lowered his gun an let her know he wasnt like those who shot her. She chose to put her trust into the man an gave her cubs to them. Afterwards she would have just layed down an let her end take her. She chose the best option she could as they had much better chance of survival with the man who showed respect to her in the injured condition she was in. Than trying to protect an provide for the cubs an most likely end up with all three dead. She wouldn't know if he would just keep them or honor her an let them become tigers they were born to be.

[@wowf0rl1f3]

a wild animal knows when it's their time, she likely didn't survive much longer than a day after surrendering her cubs and even if she did they'd have never found her. I had a dog that was feral that I fed and took care of, she never wanted to be anywhere near other people accept for me. one day she showed up with 4 puppies but her jaw was messed up and while I fed her pups she crawled under the porch. I didn't notice anything strange since she did that sometimes after eating or just after getting some loves and she always left after that, and this time I followed her under there where I noticed she wasn't breathing and she was gone. I raised the pups for a few weeks until they were old enough to be on solid food and some friends adopted them that I knew would take care of them and I'm still their favorite person even though I only see them a few times a year due to my own injuries. big ol German shepherd and pitbull hybrids that are lap dogs, mama was a pit so I figured she was hunting something and some jerk hit her with a bat or maybe even shot her, but they had that gs fur ears and tail

[@jimondang6067]

Wonderful heartwarming story. Given the chance animals make better parents than humans do. The first time I watched a mother kitten given birth to six babies when she was still a kitten herself, I couldn’t break up the family. Two babies passed in first 24 hours but the rest became a beautiful family. She is still their mother and they treat her as such. Her loving and nurturing them was unlike anything I had ever seen before. This tigress made the hardest decision any mother can make. To walk away to die but knowing her babies were safe! Such beauty and sacrifice.

Now my cat, I took her when my granddaughter's half-sister (they all lived w/me) decided that she wanted one of Calli's kittens. Calli got out one day when the door failed to completely shut after me. She was just a kitten herself. She came back 2 days later and gave birth to 3 female kittens 2 mos. later. I did not get to watch bc Calli took care of it all herself, or perhaps some help from another cat in the house (I don't know). I knew they were due, so I was suspicicous wnen Calli didn't come to greet me that morning. When she finally did respond, I followed her under my bed and there they were. I knew when I saw her that she had given birth bc her belly was flatter. She was an excellent mother. Had her spayed when they were 5 wks. old and she immediately lay down on the carpet to nurse, still "loopy" from the anesthesia. Now she is my cat and 7 yrs. old.

I'm glad to hear that they were released into the wild where they belong and that they survived.

[@lanamorris4160]

This so sad and good at the same time . So glad she left them with him and they saved him also . Where did the mamma go to die could he have not taken her somewhere to pass away and find out what was wrong with her . Bless her xx❤️

Beautiful story about the cubs and Joseph. Very sad that the mom had been shot, but at least the cubs were safe.

[@sheilahusemoller3926]

Wow wow WOW how awesome is that? I'm very happy to hear stories like this and I'm even more happy that Joseph had this experience and was able to do the right thing for the cubs and their mama.

[@pramilasurve9408]

What a great story of animals so sensible and true. They have big hopes and faith in humans. Sad story of mom but thanku for keeping ur promise n raising her two cubs. Lots of blessings to all u. Very touching

[@scottislassie]

I was almost crying the whole time as I watched this video. It was such a sweet story and how blessed that young man was and also how much he blessed both the mother and the cubs, who wound up saving his life later as well. It was truly a very beautiful and wonderful story. I love Lions more, especially the females, but I also love the tigers, including the Siberian ones. I believe God caused both the mother and also the grown up cubs to be as safe as they were with that man.

[@nicolasrose3064]

You love Siberian Tigers huh, you would be absolutely beside yourself if you saw a Siberian Grizzly in that case, there is no habitat on this Planet where Tigers and Grizzlies have clapped eyes on each-other, and as for Tigers that have been raised in captivity until adulthood and then released "knowing exactly what to do in order to survive", they would have absolutely no memory reference of seasonal food cycles, seriously, get a grip.

Animals are amazing and do not forget from whence they came and who was the one who cared for them and loved them. Great story.

[@salipallibhanojirao9659]

Wild animals are also having a heart full of kindness and a brain to think logically even during a distress. This injured tigress mother which gave birth to two cubs , had exhibited a great balanced and matured behavior with the man whom she trusted instantly with it's instinctive power. She had sacrificed her own life for the sake of her two cubs by handing over them surprisingly to a stranger. She refused to accept the help offered by the man to treat her injury. This shows her extremely kind behavior inspite of her cruel nature. Hats off to nature and the wild life rear behavior. I congratulate the producer for presenting this heart touching clip by risking his own life. 🙏👍

I didn't get very far in this story without sobbing...I have never and will never understand why people choose to kill innocent animals...they clearly have heart and have a conscience.

[@PlasticMacele]

That's because you're a sentimental idiot. Unless you're a vegan (which comes with a host of its own moral dilemmas). I am glad the tigers lived assuming this story is true. But ask yourself, how many "innocent animals" did the tigers eat during the course of their lifetimes?

[@justincordill4731]

Thank you for sharing this inspiring story. This brought tears to my eyes. I was so touched by the mother's love to he cubs. The love of this Tiger mother has the same love a human beings mother. Infact the love of this mother Tiger supercedes the love of a human mother. The human beings are so quick to kill their child in the womb or after born. May God protect those tigers and bless that man who took care of them.

Such a heart warming story. It shows animals are also loyal to their friends and loved ones. The mother tiger myst have intuitively realized that he would be able to save her cubs.

[@ds.nedsong]

Grizzly bears (Ursus Arctos Horribilis) are only found in North America, the bears referred to in this video are most likely the Ussuri Brown bear (Ursus Arctos Lasiotus). The Ussuri brown bears' habitat overlaps with the Siberian and Amur tigers. They also look just like their cousins the Grizzly & the Kodiak and are almost as big.

[@JeanFrancoisDesrosiers]

Yeah I hope you got it right, bc when the grizzly got in the story, I immediately thought this was all just fantasy.

[@adrienne3334]

I was mesmerised by this story. And it goes to show that animals that are ferocious and wild can have an amazing bond with certain humans. Animal senses are far more sharpened than our own. These tigers need all their senses to be wary of dangers they may face as indeed do all animals. I was so relieved when mum tiger realised she could trust the hunter with her cubs. All animals and human mammals have an innate wisdom when it comes to protecting our young! And when he took them away to nurture them until old enough to be released..another swath of happiness, they returned to save his life from the grizzly! Which also goes to show that animals never forget those whom look out and protect them! I am now looking forwards to reading and listening to more stories like these! It takes a special kind of human to do something extraordinary for the wildest of animals. But had the tiger had the slightest inclination that the hunter would hurt her cubs she would not have left them with him. No doubt in my mind she the tiger had probably watched him for days!

[@JustinKayce]

Imagine if someone had gone in and tranquilizer the mom, while at making a small area for her to heal and be with her cubs, until they could go back into the whole. Would’ve been very heart warming.

[@marialuna6668]

That would have been the best probability @Juse Vox 🌻🌻🌻

[@GriffenSpadeIsBack]

@@marialuna6668 not really her condition was in a bad state due to the infection in her hind leg and shooting a tranquilizer would yes help but in the end the tigress wont wake up as in passed away in the sleep. so that stance of things will not be best at all what the tigress did instead was a more worthwhile because she was more concerned for her two cubs than her own life.

[@igitahimsa5871]

@@GriffenSpadeIsBack I don't think the Mama would necessarily have to die while tranked, bec as long as she has life, she will think of her cubs first, as she demonstrated. Plus on all those documentaries out there, no one ever seems to think twice about tranking wildlife, no matter how young or old. I'll bet a good Vet could possibly give her a briefer knockout and get that wound treated fast, and once she woke up, she would *know* that she had been helped. Even though I think that, IMHO this gentleman was a total *Hero* for the way he acted. The world needs more people like that Man. God Bless them all, Cubs, Mama Tiger, and this gentleman.

[@tulsiramification]

God created animals and humans alike just like brothers and sisters in this tiny world of the universe. What we need among one another is to learn to live together like a big family. But alas ! We brutally slaughter hundreds and thousands of animals each day for the sake of our own pleasure ! Therefore, let’s be kind to animals by not killing and eating them.

Stunning, considering there is no habitat on this Planet where Tigers and Grizzlies have taken a shit on the same ground, if you have somehow convinced yourself there are Sumatran Grizzlies, or, Siberian Grizzlies, or, Indian Grizzlies, then you should enjoy the delusion, and as for Tigers that have been raised in captivity until young adulthood and then released into the wild "knowing exactly what to do in order to survive", they would have absolutely no memory reference of seasonal food cycles, seriously, get a grip.
