Pigeon and Monkey
Posted On: June 7, 2009 by cdinThis is an absolutely extraordinary picture… A little infant macaque is “taken under the wing” by a white pigeon on China’s Neilingding Island in Guangdong Province.
Evidently, this little 12 week old baby monkey was separated from its mother and faced certain death until rescued by a refuge worker.
The story is that the baby was inconsolable until he was befriended and nurtured by the white pigeon, another resident of the shelter. It seems the pigeon understood the baby needed him or her.
They have become inseparable friends. The image was shot by Jianbin Huo of China, a photojournalist. Hopefully, the two will be allowed to spend as much time as possible together.
Macaque monkeys are very intelligent, sensitive and loving. They hold lifetime memories of family and tribe. This little baby may hold love and memories forever for his little friend.

Fawn and Kitten
Posted On: February 6, 2009 by cdin
What can one say about this poignant, beautiful friendship
between a baby deer and kitten… precious and extraordinary.
Beautiful music by Louis Armstrong.
Whether this scene was staged or contrived, it nevertheless
shows how two such dissimilar creatures such as a little
household cat and young fawn can come together as
commen brethren.
A beautiful moment, beautiful song.
When some have said that animals do not have feelings,
they are very wrong… Animals do take great comfort in
each other experiencing strong feelings of love, devotion,
caring, sharing.
Oftentimes, for the rest of their lives.
Another unbelievable, incredible and wonderful video:
Unlike creatures such as a kitten or a deer are not unusual…
In Nature, animals are often known to care for, adopt or
associate with different species. Hippopotamuses have
been known to try and save the lives of injured gazelles.
