  • Sweet Baby Monkey Loves Looking After His Own Little Family Of Ducklings

    We are yet to come across someone who doesn’t love cute animal videos. Here’s one you wouldn’t want to miss.
    The video features a baby monkey looking after a brood of ducks. It’s beautiful how this infant takes care of ducklings and plays with them in the dirt.

    These little fellows seem to be having the time of their lives.

    The cute baby monkey was cuddling and kissing the ducklings, living in the moment. The two different species seemed to have bonded well.

    They spent a lot of time together, as they ate together, played together, and even took naps in each other’s company.

    There was this moment in the video where a duckling tries to groom the baby monkey and gets a cute pat on the back accompanied by a small kiss. Wherever the fuzzy baby monkey goes, the yellow ducklings follow and surround him.

    The infant monkey, however, doesn’t appear upset by this interference of being followed.

    Instead, he joyfully enjoys their company while they explore the nearby surroundings. The whole thing probably made their day.

    These adorable young creatures were cuddling up to one another and embracing their friendship.

  • The death-defying goats that don’t give a dam! Animals scale Italian lake’s near-vertical barrier to lick stones for their minerals

    Using moves that would make any rock climber jealous, these death-defying goats expertly make their way up an almost vertical dam.

    Photographer Paolo Seimandi, 34, captured the amusing moment the herd of alpine ibexes decided to scale the brick wall in the Gran Paradiso National Park in Northern Italy.

    And they aren’t doing it just to show off – it is thought the goats are actually grazing, licking the stones for their salts and minerals.

    The gravity-defying goats typically live in very steep and rocky terrain at altitudes of up to to 4,600m and have no fear of falling whether climbing up or down the dam wall.

    In the past the alpine ibex was just restricted to the Gran Paradiso National Park and the Maurienne Valley in the French Alps, but in recent years they have been spotted in Germany, Switzerland and Austria as well as Bulgaria and Slovenia.

    For most of the year, males and females occupy different habitats – females tend to stick to steep terrain and males use lowland meadows.

    But when snow appears both sexes, which are strictly herbivorous, move to steep rocky slopes to avoid the snow.
