Wait Until You See This Dog Who Adopted a Baby Opossum

These two animal friends will straight up melt your heart. Poncho the opossum was found clinging to his mother’s side, right after she had been killed by a car on the highway. Poncho seemed all alone and likely to die, until Hantu the German Shepard came along. Hantu essentially adopted Poncho, taking the baby animal under his wing. Two years later, these two are still an unlikely couple! You have to see them together, it’s so touching.

Hantu basically became the mother that Poncho lost, helping to nurse him back to health. Hantu had no puppies of her own, so Poncho became her one and only.

As you can imagine, Poncho and Hantu, even two years later, are extremely close. Hantu rarely goes for a walk in the woods without Poncho clinging to her side – which is now a little more hilarious with Poncho gotten so big!

This is a such a true testament to the bonds friendship can have, even if they’re unlikely ones.
