Roscoe was an orangutan suffering from depression after both of his parents passed away. He did not respond to any treatment, refused to eat and would have died soon unless he recovered. That’s when the zoo staff introduced him to an old, stray dog that needed to be taken care of to regain his health.
Both of them are now healthy, happy and they’re spending every day together!
Years ago, the conservationist Lawrence Anthony saved the lives of many elephants that were sentenced to death because they were considered to be too dangerous. Also, he created an appropriate environment for them to grow and raise their family in peace.
When Anthony passed away, the same group of elephants marched down to his house for 2 hours as a tribute to the man who saved them.
