Cross-fostering is not that uncommon among animals. Yet a golden retriever mothering an Amur leopard cub is somewhat unusual, in that this species of Far-Eastern leopards is critically endangered and only 19 to 26 Amur leopards live in the wild of the Russian Far East. Tessa, the foster mom, already has four puppies of her own but can still accommodate one more. As the cub has soon outgrown the other retriever puppies, zoo keepers had to find her some companions to socialize and play with. One is a lioness and the other a tigress.
