Monkey adopts chicken as they become inseparable(Photos)

A  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.


On a daily basis the monkey can be seen cradling the chicken, grooming it and even going to sleep with it. The Associated Press reports.

Earlier this week it also 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.
