Friendship? Ok it's nice to think like that, but this is just animals being smart.

The tiger is being fed and allowed to hunt, so unless it finds itself hungry, it won't kill without necessity (unlike us humans).

The second most notorius part of the story is that the goat viciously defended itself. No predator is going to spend that much energy trying to catch a super difficult prey if there are other easier sources of energy avaliable. Spending more energy trying to get energy (food) is a bit counterproductive.

The tiger is smart enough to know all this.

EDIT: IT EVEN SAYS SO IN THE ARTICLE FFS!!!! It'll only last until the tiger gets hungry!! *facepalm*
