VIDEO: The unlikely friendship between a tiger and a goat

In Vladivostok, in Russia’s far east, a live goat was introduced into the enclosure of a safari park tiger.

The tiger, Amur, was in theory, supposed to hunt and eat Timur the goat, but instead a rare friendship between Amur and Timur stunned keepers at the Russian safari park.

The friendship between the two has raised many eyebrows after the goat refused to become the predator's lunch, and instead chose to sleep in the tiger's bed.

Park keepers say they have no plans to separate the pair.
