Tigress having the power to take down any and everyone but gentle and controlled enough to play with her baby. Incredible

Of course, that mama tiger is built to be a killing machine but, it's still so cute how you can just see how the mama tiger thinks and feels that to her the cub is irresistably cuddly and adorable.

She's a good mama, it's so sweet how gentle she is as they're wrestling. 🐯🐅♥

Mom's paws are so huge and her tongue covers the cub's whole face! Adorable.

The non stop noise of camera shutters makes this moment truly precious

Awe, she loves that baby!! Being so gentle and teaching him well.

It is so amazing that such a huge and powerful predator can be so tender with her little baby

[freeman]

You can see in this video, that the bond between a mother and her child is very natural and very powerful.

Cub is literally training himself. The moves are on point like 2 adults fighting. What a ferocious and beautiful creature.

As a loving mother, she does not mind and willingly plays with her cub.

[gemarete]

There’s just something so heartwarming to see big apex predators being gentle and goofing around .

[cryzzn]

Wow, her babie's whole head fits in her mouth! She is so incredibly gentle with him, this is just such loving interaction between them

[Kuttasx]

She’s so tender and bonding with her cub more than some humans with their kid(s).

[galaxylucia]

This is too precious. I’m glad the mom and her cub have this time to bond and play in a (hopefully) stress-free environment.

This might be the most beautiful animal ‘mother and baby’ interaction that I have ever seen. 🥰

[Free_Hugz]

It's crazy how calm they are considering there is a small war happening in the background

سبحان الخالق، نفس المخالب و الأنياب التي تفتك بفريستها تداعب الصغير بكل حنان و عطف.

This is mom, so muscular and powerful. I wonder how dad looks like. He will be an absolute unit.
