Description

In this heartwarming episode, we dive into the incredible world of interspecies friendships, where the laws of nature bend in the name of love, loyalty, and companionship. We explore the touching stories of Chito and Pocho, the Costa Rican fisherman and his beloved crocodile; Molly and Peggy, the unlikely duo of a rescued magpie and a playful Staffy; Jane Goodall and David Greybeard, the deep bond between a chimpanzee and her human guardian; and Sphen and Magic, the iconic gay penguin couple who showed the world that love transcends gender and species.

Discover the science, mystery, and magic behind these surprising relationships, and how they challenge what we think we know about the animal kingdom.
