It seems that we are not the only animals on the planet that want the companionship of other animals.
I admit, some of the situations surprized me. I can sort of understand a gorilla wanting a kitten. After all we want kittens. Capuchin monkeys keeping a marmoset is a bit of a surprize. The kitten and the crow are a total surprize.

It is cute and touching. There must be countless bonds between animals that we are unaware of. I wonder what is the strangest bond.
I suspect humans and dogs is the closest bond, but are they our pets or are we their pets?
