This is one of the most heartwarming videos I've ever seen.

Animals never cease to amaze me.

I've seen this one and think it's awesome! Now if people could just learn that lesson!

That went around a while back. It is darling, but I wonder if the Orangutan ever gets TOO rough. They are powerful!

There was a story similar to that with a baby hippo and a tortoise who were victims of the Asian Tsunami a few years back. They bonded at a wildlife rehab the same way these two did. There is even a childrens book written about them. It is so cool when animals of different species bond like that.

Here is a link to that story...
