It could be a story straight out of a children's cartoon but this monkey and chicken have become the best of pals.
Black macaque Niv, 10, adopted her feathered friend after it wandered into her enclosure at the Ran Gan Safari park, near Tel Aviv, Israel.
Her maternal instinct immediately kicked in and zookeepers say the pair have been inseparable ever since.
Footage of the pals shows Niv sticking close to her friend as it contently pecks around the enclosure.
On a daily basis the monkey can be seen cradling the chicken, grooming it and even going to sleep with it.
The pair aren't the only ones making headlines for their unlikely friendship.
Earlier this week it emerged that a monkey had adopted a cat at a rescue centre in Thailand.
The buddies have been seen sharing food, posing for pictures and checking each other for lice.
