According to the National Tiger Conservation Authority, tiger cubs can be abandoned by their mother due to several reasons including the inability of the mother to feed them and some weakness or birth defect in the babies. Cubs can also be abandoned in the wild due to poaching, death of the mother, internecine combat among different tigers, other natural causes and so on.
This is not the first video of tigers that has left social media users delighted. Recently viewers were stunned to see a tiger jump off a rescue boat and swim towards land. The scene reminded many of the 2012 film Life of Pi, where the tiger leaves the main character at the end of their journey without a backward glance.
