According to those crazy cuteporters over at Yahoo! News:
French bulldog named Baby, left, attends the feeding of wild boar piglets at the Lehnitz animal sanctuary outside Berlin, Germany, Wednesday, Feb. 15, 2012. Six little pigs have found a new friend in a maternal French bulldog named Baby. The Lehnitz animal sanctuary outside Berlin says Baby took straight to the wild boar piglets when they were brought in Saturday, three days old and shivering from cold.
Shiveringks piglets!!! AHHHHH!!! [Headsplosion]
Much more over at Yahoo News. Photos by Michael Sohn.
Love the second pic: a stripey lapful of boaring honk-shus.
it just dawned on me they look like bebeh stiripey deer!
That was actually my first impression until I saw the snoutage.
The peeglets look so soft!! I love a good resQte!
They do look soft and beautiful markings. Dig the sweet little hoof in pic 3!
…and yet another new addition to the Men of Cute Overload!
Those manly animal resQters get me every time.
Ah GOTS t’agree, wit dis one. A-yup. That male biped is right cute.
All these photos are cute, but that last picture is lethal. Use it wisely, people!
Yay for resqute baby piglets and sweet French bulldogs and bottle feeding men!
I’m totally in agreement.. the 3rd one made me “awhaawww!” out loud!
OKAY??? It’s causing a headsplosion chain reaction here….
Those are the most a-boarable piglets I have ever seen.
Extra sweetness for the evidently advanced age of the Frenchy! She’s Oma-doggy!
Those piglets are pretty and cute but that last pic reminds me they grow pointy tusks get dangerous when grown. X_X
I was gonna say…look at the teeth on that critter! Cute, but yikes!
ITS A KILLER RABBIT
Suddenly I have the Jekyll & Hyde Bugs Bunny (? Or was it Tom & Jerry?) cartoon in my mind’s eye……
Look at the teeth on THIS critter!

Needs him a good orthodontist!!
“Are you my Mama?”
“No, I am the bringer of the milk.”
“Looking for my Mama is tiring. Zzzzzzzzzzz….”
“Are you my Mama?”
“Yes! Baroooo!”
grrrrl you funny.
you should write the rollover text.
Eeeeeeeeeee! Squiglets!
Um, Theresa, wouldn’t that be a combination of squirrel and piglet?
It could be. But i meant squee-able piglets.
Sqeeglets!
pork and bleens
Squeeglets (-:
PS I adore wild piggies’ stripey coats. They look sort of watermelons with snouts. On trotters.
Or animated mint humbugs,
Ooops, I may have caused some Transatlantic linguistic bafflement. Mint humbugs are stripy mint-flavoured sweets.
Exactly!

I was thinkin’ chipmunks.
What career path do I have to take so that baby boars end up sleeping in my lap? TELL ME!!
Here in the states, almost all keeper jobs require a four year degree and previous experience, which means volunteer and/or intern work.
Live in Berlin, they’re overrun the place. They hired a trapper/hunter a few years ago and he almost got poached by an angry crowd of Berliners!
They are like a combination of pigs and chipmunks! Pigmunks? Chiglets?
PIGMUNKS!!!
Luv eet!
I thought so too! I vote for PIGMUNKS!
Chippigs!
There are 6 piglets and only one person to feed them?
I’ll help! I don’t mind, really!!!
Ok, as cute as they all are – the puppeh, the piglets, and the animal resqte – I think the funniest part of the story is that the guy’s last name is Damm. That cracks me up – you could get away with yelling DAMM! anytime you wanted… hahahaahh… ok, I admit it, I have a weird sense of humor…
I do it anyway.
The guy is kind of cute, so I guess we could call him Hot Damm.
You win!
again!
And if he is into the ladies, you could call him Damm Straight.
would the country of his residence be Damm Nation?
If he likes kangaroos or peanut butter, Damm Skippy.
for the win!!!!!!
That one actually made me laugh right out loud early on Sunday morning….
(shhhhhh it’s a Sunday.
)
No boisterousness allowed
me too – that whole thread made me laugh out loud!
Oakley, I just want you to know, you make my life better. You are just too funny.
But he probably pronounces it a bit differently…
You’re right. In German, it would be “dahm”.
No. Pronouncing it like ‘damn’ is quote right. It’s a short vowel. The ‘a’ is pronounced like the one in ‘mama’, though, not like the one in ‘jam’.
Actually it is pronounced like dumb
Now *I* want a lapful of striped, snorgling piglets!
Even after seeing what their elders did in my family’s walnut orchard. I don’t know what they were after, but almost anywhere else it would’ve made a lovely duckpond!
They were obvy looking for truffles! For the paté, of course.
They were after the walnuts. Wild pigs love them according to some of the shows I watch. Never having actually been a wild piglet myself (pouts) I can’t speak from personal experience you understand .
D
You watch shows about wild piglets and their food preferences? Where??
omg the cuteness
I feel like in the second picture Baby is thinking…why are you cuddling with him?! You should be cuddling wif me! WIF ME!!!
I had no idea how cute and stripey boar piglets were! They almost look like fawns.
Gosh. I hope that Obelix didn’t leave a half dozen of these prosh little guys to fend for themselves every time he had dinner
./
AHHHHH! I KNOW that reference!!! Asterix comics
Boy I forgot that was Obelix’s fave foods. Nice one JME 
I thought they looked like little baby deer coats as well! I guess good camouflage is good camouflage, no matter what species you are!
I love you for making that reference!
I love Asterix and Obelix! Also ElfQuest. And the OLD versions of Superman,
Wonder Woman, etc. I just like old comics.
The formatting screwed up!
Zee peeg hoofs! Zey are so delicat! Hot Damm!
Seriously, people. This kind of thing just HAS TO STOP. This is cruel, mean and very dangerous! I demand that CO has to start putting warning labels to pictures like this.
Or rate them. For example:
A = Allowed for all audiences
E = Extremely high Qte-content, only for experienced users
CG = Cute with Hot guys. Damm!
CW = Cute Women and quite likely huge^H^H^H^H racks, too
L = lethally cute. Don’t watch. Really, This photo will suck in your soul.
Oooh, mod lounge! Haven’t been here in a while. Lovely new decorations, the stripey couch is really nice.
The couch isn’t striped, it’s covered in piglets! Watch out when you sit down!
We have a couch? O.O
Well, it’s a cardboard box with “couch” written on it in blue Sharpie.
i thought that was the litter box O.O
@Bumble the Bunny: no, that’s got “litter box” written on it in brown Sharpie…..
Of course the goggy likes the piglets, they smell like bacon!
snortlaff!
First thought: My brain immejeetly went to humming “head, shoulders knees & toes” song/ chant.
Second thought: JUST LOOKIT all the triangle earsies and all the snouts
)
(INCLUDING on the POOCH
PILE O’ PEEGGIES!
Am I the only one that sees David Duchovney feeding the piglets in photo 1?
The pigs look like they should have a baby monkey riding backwards on them (google it).
gulp.
happens occasionally, that adoption thingy
http://www.abendblatt.de/multimedia/archive/00102/keiler_HA_Hamburg_E_102407b.jpg
The stripes kill me. Who knew?
Stripelets! Want to pet that stripey fur!
Another case of inter-species snorgling! Let’s hope the piglets have good memories when they and their tusks get big.
Tinee tabbee PIGS?
zookeeper’s pretty cute too. or don’t humans count?
I think these photos are utterly adorable, but I can’t help laughing since the stripes on the piglets make me think of bacon…and then I envision the French bulldog dog staring at the piglets with that thought in mind.
Need video!!
