A monkey signals a human to hold out his hand so it can provide some dry leaves. Through the fence, the monkey proceeds to help close the human’s hand so he can successfully crush leaves. This human learns a new and valuable life skill.

Chino, the Capuchin monkey, lives at the International Primate Rescue sanctuary in South Africa. Originally purchased as a pet, the owner soon realized he’d be better off in a sanctuary and turned him in to be hand-reared by volunteers. Living there since 2010, when he was just 6 weeks old.

A Finnish man makes friends with an Otter called Iivari.

Enjoy!

A man in Finland made friends with a wild otter, using the one thing the otter really wants -food! The otter will even come into the house long enough to grab a fish, although he prefers to eat it outside, alone. The guy’s lovely deep voice summons the otter from the water even when it’s covered with ice. By the end of the video, Iiveri is even talking back to him!
