Orphaned Baby Tiger’s Best Friend and Playmate May Surprise You [VIDEO]

When this baby tiger's mother started getting aggressive  towards her only cub, the two had to be separated. The cub soon found companionship with an unlikely animal friend.

Hunter, the tiger cub, and Chelsea, the puppy, have become best friends having a lot of fun together. How long it will last is anyone's guess.

The animal sanctuary staff says they'll know in the next six months, as the two grow and mature, whether the play may get too rough, especially for the puppy, who won't grow nearly as large as the tiger.

Meantime, the two are having a great time chasing and wrestling each other.
