Fresh Face
“The little bush baby was happy to play in Bobo’s arms, hopping off to explore the grass nearby, before returning to Bobo’s hand,” Elissa recalled. While the little creature had initially been rather afraid of its new home, Bobo was an excellent host.
The other primates in the enclosure would soon take a new interest in Bobo’s new guest. While they were happy to allow Bobo to carry on with his unusual behavior, they soon realized that he had a fascinating new friend that they wanted to meet.
Go On
Despite how fixated Bobo’s neighbors were with the new animal visitor, Bobo would not allow them to approach and was incredibly protective of the bush baby. He then handed the little animal over to a high branch, allowing him to escape back to his home.
Unbeknownst to Bobo, the entire situation had been recorded by Elissa, who was overjoyed to have filmed this incredible relationship and its unfolding events. She knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime moment.
