The decision was made to keep the youngsters together when they were brought to the Noah’s Ark Animal Rescue Centre in Georgia. “We could have separated them, but since they came as a kind of family, the zoo decided to keep them together,” said Diane Smith, assistant director of the Noah’s Ark zoo. Living with the zoo’s founders for the past eight years, they have now moved to a purpose built habitat where the US public can now see their touching relationship. “We didn’t have the money to move them at first,” said Diane.“Now they have their new habitat and have been moved away from the children’s zoo areas where the public couldn’t really get a good look.” “Now it is possible to see Baloo, a 1,000 pound bear, Shere Khan, a 350 pound tiger and Leo also 350 pounds spending their time like brothers.” Looked after by the zoo’s owners and founders, the three friends appear to have no understanding of their animal differences. “Baloo and Shere Khan are very close,” says Diane. “That is because they rise early .As a lion, Leo likes to spend most the day sleeping.” “It is wonderful and magical to see a big American black bear put his arm around a Bengal tiger and then to see the tiger nuzzle up to (用鼻子爱抚)the bear like a family cat,”says Diane.
