Wildlife biologist Liz Bonnin sets off on a worldwide journey of discovery to find out why animals of different species make friends with each other, and even fall in love.
Wildlife biologist Liz Bonnin goes on a journey of discovery to find out the science behind unusual interactions in the animal kingdom. Some of the surprising associations include a polar bear befriending huskies, a cat mothering ducklings, and an orangutan who keeps a pet dog. These odd pairings are not just limited to different species; animal relationships with humans are also explored, as people have been known to keep exotic pets such as lions, hippos and buffalos. Bonnin investigates the root of the affectionate connections and tries to uncover the reasons for the behaviours.
Some people have sought out unusual, and even potentially dangerous relationships, with some very surprising animals.”

The cat lady is in the greatest danger imo, followed by hyena man, followed by buffalo man….then of course Goose man that's really hard core stuff, respect!
Our ind ian g ods and ancestors had great friendships with animals at time, when your an cestors were suffering to eat.
Awsome hearing the polar bear purring was so cool.
It would be cool if we could figure out a way to interact with the lions better. Like in jurassic world with raptors. You're dominant and they view you as a leader and hunt together. I honestly think you could. It would take us acting outside of our own nature. Not necessarily eating raw meat lol. Just predatory stalking behavior on game animals maybe they could even learn signals. Some animals recognize intelligence.
Never ask a fish how to fish…
Dolphins be like are you sure about that?
8:08 – this is the point where he panics at the thought of loosing the polar bear.
I can relate.
The scene of her and the hyena staring face to face is just beautiful. They say the best people in the world are kind to animals.
The whole time that Jessica the Hippo was inside their house, I was hoping that she didn't just start muck-spreading everywhere
So no one's going to talk abt 37:58
I think the duck thinks the old man is it's baby
That was pretty cool!
Thanks a lot
That buffalo walked into the house, looked up at a trophy head of another Buffalo and promptly walked out the back door.
Hyenas are the only thing on this list that I’m absolutely terrified of. Next being the hippo
She belongs in the wild as you belong in the city.
Deeerp we love to keep pets
Man shut up n get to the point….French ppl piss me off
13:45 that woman is absolutly insane, and i dont mean that in a positive way. animals such as these SHOULD NEVER be kept at pets. it´s not quite animal abuse, but it isn´t alright either
What do you feed a polar bear?
Are you sure? Stepping into the polar bear enclosure. Fuck that. Fuck you. No thank you.
Not strange that animals can bond with people. We're all complex. We all have social instincts. Probably most of these started as babies.
