Sometimes the world is a cruel place, but sometimes happiness can be found in the most unexpected way. Take the case of Gertjie, a white rhino orphaned when his mother was killed by poachers in 2014. But Gertjie, known as Little G, was saved and is now living in a preserve in South Africa. He also made a most unusual friend when arriving at the preserve: Lammie the goat.

This adorable video shows Little G and Lammie at play, Little G prancing and jumping in imitation of his smaller and more nimble pal. Gertjie now shares his protected home with another orphaned white rhino, Matimba. The two are inseparable and you can even watch them in real time in South Africa! Click here for the webcam feed.
