This is proof that love comes in all shapes and sizes. This adorable orangutan from Myrtle Beach Safari South Carolina has become a designated babysitter for a group of tiger cubs. Something you probably won't see often, but absolutely adorable!

This 3 year old male orangutan, Hanama, spends his days cuddling, feeding and playing with Skukuzza and Simh, who are both male tiger cubs. They know they can count on him at all times and he always makes them happy. According to Hanama's keeper, he wanted to imitate what he saw the human caregivers doing.

The bond they created was instant, and now these three are inseparable. He loves to cuddle with them and take care of them and given them the comfort they need. When these cubs get a little older, one of them may have to be separated because of his size.
