What is happening?
0:01
[Radio] We've got eyes on five cubs through Robbie's drone.
0:05
Five cubs.
0:07
There are five cubs.
0:09
No one's ever seen tigers do this before.
0:18
[Anna] So Goma is clearly taking a well-needed rest.
0:22
And her cubs are just sat next to her.
0:29
[Narrator] But Goma's family is not alone.
0:35
[Anna] Oh, there's three cubs. There's three.
0:39
No way.
0:41
No four.
0:43
[Manju] There is four. [Anna] There's four cubs.
0:47
Manju, how many cubs does Goma have?
0:52
[Manju] Two cubs. [Anna] OK.
0:54
Now, she has four cubs today.
0:59
[Narrator] Nearby, the drones have spotted another tiger.
1:06
It's Jugini.
1:11
Normally, mothers with cubs avoid other tigers.
1:17
But Goma appears to be looking after Jugini's cubs.
1:30
[Manju] Since I'm working in nature,
1:32
I've never seen this kind of thing.
1:35
So one mother leaving cub with another.
1:37
This is definitely something different.
1:41
[Narrator] Sharing parenting duties
1:43
could be a response to the threat posed by males…
1:48
..helping to keep the cubs safe
1:49
while one parent is busy.
1:53
What is happening?
1:54
[Radio] We've got eyes on five cubs through Robbie's drone.
1:58
Five cubs.
2:00
There are five cubs.
2:08
So there are two adult female tigers with cubs.
2:12
And one of them is looking after all the cubs, while the other one's eating.
2:16
No one's ever seen tigers do this before.
2:20
I was about to say tigers are solitary big cats.
2:23
Are they?
2:24
I don't know any more.
2:29
They're supposed to be incredibly territorial.
2:31
Females do not cross paths unless they absolutely have to.
2:36
They don't share cubs.
2:37
They don't share parenting duties.
2:41
All of this is unfolding just 50 yards over there.
2:45
This is not what it says in the textbooks.
2:52
- You just don't imagine that there's…
2:56
..things to learn still about
2:58
the most iconic animal on the planet.
3:01
But there is. And it's here.
