A video of a monkey feeding a macaw parrot has gone viral.
The video was taken at El Hostal del Fraile in Puerto Nariño, Colombia. This hostel is known for its daily animal visitors. Squirrel monkeys, macaws, lion monkeys, and capuchin monkeys come out of the jungle to visit the hostel regularly. It’s here that we see the touching scene between a capuchin monkey and a colorful macaw parrot.
The video starts with a monkey eating while a colorful macaw sits nearby. At first, it looks like the parrot wants some food, but the monkey turns away playfully. This might make us think the monkey won’t share, but what happens next is truly heartwarming.
Soon, the monkey stretches out to the macaw and gently offers its food. This kind act reveals how close these two animals are.
The monkey feeds its bird friend with great care, showing a level of kindness we might not expect from animals.
It’s special to see the monkey take care of the macaw. We know monkeys are smart and social, but seeing one be so kind to a bird is amazing.
Parrots are very smart birds that can form strong bonds with others. Here, we see the macaw has clearly bonded with its monkey friend, which is quite unusual.
For many of us, this video might make us think about our own relationships. If a monkey can be so gentle with a bird from a different species, shouldn’t we humans be even kinder to each other?
In God’s creation, every creature has its place. This friendship between a monkey and a macaw reminds us that all living things are connected. It shows the harmony God wants in His creation, where different beings live together peacefully and care for each other.
Jesus taught us to love our neighbors as ourselves, but He didn’t put limits on who our neighbors are. In fact, He showed us through His own life that our love should extend to everyone – even those who seem different from us or those we might consider enemies.
When Jesus died on the cross, He did so for all of humanity, not just for a select group. This universal love is what we’re called to emulate in our own lives.
Let’s pray for hearts that are open, kind, and loving – hearts that reflect God’s boundless love for all His creation.
