The Kindness These 53 Animals Showed Each Other Will Make You Cry In Public. #32 is the Cutest!

Humans think they’ve got the market cornered on most of the good emotions and characteristics: sympathy, joy, compassion, kindness. But believe it or not, our feathered and furred friends are just about bursting with the stuff.

Animals are happy as can be paying it forward to their buddies and family; even if they’re not the same species!

Here are 53 animals who prove that kindness isn’t just for humans. (Seriously, Don’t miss no. 32th!)

1.) Tan, a dog from Thailand, made best friends with a macaque he lost his mother.

After his mother was killed by a hunter, a 3-month-old macaque monkey was taken in to a Buddhist Temple in Thailand, where he was adopted by the temple dog, Tan.

Tan looks after the orphaned monkey and even shares his food. Totally adorable!

In 2012, a Canadian documentary crew chanced upon a remarkable scene: a family of bottlenose dolphins rescuing a small seal pup on the verge of drowning. In this footage, a lone baby seal is seen struggling helplessly against a strong current pulling it towards the danger of a rocky beach.

With only 100 meters between it and the shore, the exhausted pup appears to run out of energy, and stops swimming.

But just at this moment, a family of dolphins arrives and, with gentle nudges, encourages the seal to start swimming again. It seems to work and, with a new lease of life, the baby seal swims off into the safety of the deep.

This dog stepped in after the mother of two red pandas rejected them shortly after they were born in the Taiyuan Zoo in China. The mixed-breed dog cared for the red pandas ardently, helping them grow to their potential.

She takes to her duties so enthusiastically that she sometimes even denies her own puppy milk in favor of the red pandas. The cubs are reportedly thriving and have doubled in length over the last weeks (they now measure about 8 inches long).

As adults, they’ll be about the size of a house cat (but with much larger, bushier tails than most cats) and spend most of their time in trees.

Rex the dog saved a baby kangaroo from the pouch of its mom, who had been struck by a car and killed in Torquay, Victoria, Australia. The joey would have otherwise died, had it not been for the heroic Rex.

When the Lehnitz Animal Sanctuary in Berlin, Germany took in six three-day-old wild boar piglets, Baby the French bulldog immediately took to them and treated them as her own puppies.

The piglets were shivering and cold, orphaned after their mother was presumably shot by hunters.

This wasn’t Baby’s first experience as a surrogate mom. Before caring for the piglets, she had taken other sanctuary rescues under her wing, including cats and a raccoon.

Staff at the zoo in Samara, Russia, were excited about the birth of three cougar cubs on July 15 — but they were afraid to leave the cubs with their parents for fear that they could react aggressively and harm the infants.

The cubs were given instead to Cholli, a German shepherd dog with five young puppies of her own and a maternal instinct that just wouldn’t quit.

Since then, Cholli and her foster “kids” have gotten along swimmingly, and she’s fed them and cared for them as if they were her own puppies.

By age ten, Lisha the Labrador retriever helped raise more than thirty baby animals of all different species.

If baby animals have no mother to care for them, “they’ll become a little too comfortable with humans, and indeed often start patterning their behavior after that of humans.”

When Lisha licks and cares for these little tykes, she’s not just loving them, she’s teaching them how to survive.

We bet you didn’t think that dog looked like much of a bad boy. But Rex was just that. In fact, he came close to being put to sleep because he was so aggressive towards people. But to everyone’s surprise, everything changed for Rex when he met Geraldine.

Rex was rescued from a scrapyard, where he had spent all his life until the age of three chained up. The original shelter that rescued him couldn’t handle him, though. He bit everyone who came near, and would bark aggressively at everyone. Geraldine had been a family pet, but eventually her family couldn’t handle her. She was brought to Puriton and placed with the other birds, but she only had eyes for Rex.

Now Rex is calm and contented, as is Geraldine. This animal odd couple proves that all you need is love and you can overcome any barrier, be it emotional traumas, or even inter-species romance!
