Mother Dog Breastfeeds Newly-born Leopards

Three newly-born leopards were refused to be milked by their mother Yuan Yuan at Fuzhou Zoo in southern China's Fujian province, but they were still lucky enough, because the authorities had found a surrogate mother of dog for them. The dog named Dian Dian will breastfeed triplet leopards together with her own baby for about one month.

The good-tempered three-year-old Dian Dian provided by a local female resident was believed to be the most suitable "mother" to take care of the leopards. Dian Dian has passed all the strict health check and other forms of interviews. She had just given birth to two puppies, but one failed to survive. She has enough to feed the cub. As told by one animal doctor in the zoo, living with her puppy dog is also quite good for the growth of the leopards.
