According to Matthew Dillon - the Communications Director of Zoological Wildlife Foundation, it’s just the way Binta and Limbani show their love toward one another.
“Binta has known Limbani since birth and clearly they've adapted a play style that suits them both,” he said.
“Our goal is to educate the public about the danger these animals face in the wild and what can be done to help protect them,” Dillon added.
