Wild Pets

How is it to adopt a puppy and bring it up? Let's say it gets sick after two years and you take it to a vet. How would you feel he says "I don't treat bear cubs" :-D This seems like a real life incident.

Somebody else was smarter. They took a tiger cub and domesticated it. Of course after a while, it got back into tiger mode and started biting people. This person took it to the forest and left it there thinking that it would go back to its natural habitat. He comes home and discovers that the same tiger is still sitting in his backyard. The tiger is neither fully wild nor fully domestic! That must be a big nightmare for the pet master!

These things remind me of the movie "Annai Oru Aalayam", starring Superstar. As a kid, I was greatly impressed with this movie. To persuade me to eat, my mother always used to tell me the story of this movie. There is a incident that she can never forget - apparently I hit her very hard once when she twisted the story and changed it when narrating it to me :) I was not that naughty of a kid I know, but there are some interesting incidents like this.
