Narwhal that’s been “adopted” by a pod of belugas:'One of the boys': Beluga whales adopt lost narwhal in St. Lawrence River | CBC News
An Asiatic Lion in the Gir Forest has adopted a leopard cub, keeping it with her own two cubs. She's been observed for a week now and has been keeping the cub safe from the other lions.
I'm curious how long she'll be able to keep it before it gets killed.

This is super interesting! Bald Eagle Trio Paired for Life?
"Male Valor 1 was young when he was spotted at the nest site in 2012. He is presumed father of that year’s two eggs, but he wasn’t helpful at incubation or feeding the young, and both eaglets died. In 2013, two males hung out at the nest, but Valor 2 apparently replaced Valor 1, and produced two young with female Hope. The next year, vegetation obscured the nest, but three adults appeared to be tending the young. In 2015, three adults were clearly seen tending the nest: Valor 1, Valor 2, and Hope. This was proving interesting, so Stewards of the Upper Mississippi River Refuge installed a nest camera, and in 2016, it was clearly documented that both males were copulating with Hope, and all three shared in incubation, nest maintenance, and feeding the young. Three eaglets fledged that year. But disaster struck in 2017: After two eggs hatched, two “foreign” adult bald eagles attacked the nest repeatedly for several consecutive days. Valor 1 and Valor 2 defended the nest, but Hope disappeared, never to return. Both dads raised the two eaglets to fledging. That September, a new young female turned up at the nest, and both Valor 1 and Valor 2 courted her. She laid two eggs in 2018, and all three adults tended them. Only one eaglet fledged, and the new female was named Starr. In 2019, she and her mates produced three eggs between February 18 and 24."

Several family groups of killer whales (around fifty individuals) were photographed last Thursday off the coast of Western Australia attacking and successfully killing a sixteen to eighteen metre-long blue whale. This is the first record of an adult large baleen whale being killed in a killer whale attack off the Australian coast.

Hello all, just to let you know I have tidied up this thread to remove posts containing broken links, which were all links to embedded videos from Facebook. Facebook has a high-turnover of content, meaning videos are much more likely to be taken down. If you find a video that you would like to share, please see if you can find a copy on a different website (YouTube etc) and link from there, rather than from Facebook.
Thanks
Thanks
Just came across this. Photos and video - a benefit of checking camera trap images immediately! - of a genet riding on the backs of rhinos and buffaloes. The researchers speculate that it does it to catch insects.
