After losing his parents, this 3 year old orangutang was so depressed he wouldn't eat or respond to any medical treatments. The veterinarians thought that he would surely die because of sadness.
The zookeepers found an old sick dog on the grounds in the park at the zoo where the orangutang lived and took the dog to the animal treatment center. The dog arrived at the same time that the orangutang was being treated.
The two lost souls have been inseparable ever since. The orangutang found a new reason to live and each animal always tried its best to be a good companion to his new found friend. They are together 24 hours a day in all their activities.
They live in northern California where swimming is their favorite past time...although Roscoe (the orangutang) is a little afraid of the water and needs his friend's help to swim.
Together they have discovered the joy and laughter in life and the value of friendship.
They have found a friendly shoulder to lean on. - Lon g Live Friendship!!!
I don't know...some say life is too short, others say it's too long, but I know that nothing that we do makes sense if we don't touch the hearts of others while we have the chance. May you always have Love to Share, Health to Spare, and Friends who Care....even if they are a little hairy at times :)
