Just thought you guys might have something to say on this one...

Hey this thread reminds me of the time I saw a program on Animal Planet. It was where this female Lion and an antelope of somekind had this mom and baby thing going on for a while. Anyone see that one?

i personally think that keeping the two together is irresponsible and extremely risky. i mean, would you leave a live rat in with your ball python (or other snake), unsupervised, for more than the 15 minutes or so that you wait for it to be eaten? sure it sounds cute and all, but come on, it's really rather...stupid. :hmm:

I doubt the zoo would seperate them. Something like that could draw crowds and generate revenue :rolleyes:

yeah, and that's really pretty sad. nevermind what's best for the animal if it makes money. :(

Well Who Says It Cant Be Love At First Sight..bite..

They have stuff similar to that on Animal Planet ALL the time...it's suppose to be....like.....heartwarming or something. I kind of think they miss the point, but I'm a very cynical person =P

I agree with the comments about this being a bit irresponsible...really, why risk it (other than increased patronage of course)? It's not "cute" when one of the animals gets hurt/eaten....
