Amazing interspecies relationships

Dad is a giant century-old tortoise, and son is less than a year-old hippo. They found each other after the tsunami in the port city of Mombassa. The pair carried out daily routine such as eating, swimming, sleeping and bonding together. Click here for the whole amazing story!

Mom is a Papillion, adopted son is a squirrel, and siblings are Papillion puppies. The squirrel-Finnegan-was found under a tree at around one week old, and Mademoiselle Giselle-the Papillion-was pregnant at the time. Owner Debby Cantlon said the dog actually pulled Finnegan’s case next to her bed twice, and encouraged the squirrel to join her family.

A 9-year-old golden retriever, Chino has a favorite fish named Falstaff, and they meet daily at Dan and Mary health’s home in Medford, Oregon. They have spent the last three years together. When Chino comes, Falstaff swims up to him happily, and nibble on his paws.


Suryia the orangutan and Roscoe the dog became best friends upon meeting each other. The more we hear about bonding between animal species, the more we wonder what happened to humanity. Both Suryia and Roscoe live at The Institute of Greatly Endangered and Rare Species in Myrtle Beach, SC. More pictures here
