Damn I cried SO HARD on this film! I FIRST cried for that poor Zebra after he broke his poor little legs. (before I knew what I was in for! I thought that poor Zebra had it bad!) God damnit the times when the tiger was scared and exhausted from the boat thrashing around. Then the time when he was near death an Piscine pets his sweet head. LORD I BALLED! This really was a beautiful film!
