Life is one long cuddle for these three babies. Tucked up in bed with their toys
Life is one long cuddle for these three babies. Tucked up in bed with their toys, they can lie back and relax in the knowledge that someone loves them. Their real mothers abandoned them but two tireless foster mothers are working round the clock to keep the youngsters happy and contented. Molly Badham and Natalie Evans feed them every three hours at Twycross Zoo in Leicestershire. Assante, the 8-day-old gorilla, Becky the 2-week-old chimpanzee and Lee, the 3-week-old orang-utan are all doing fine. And Molly and Natalie reckon that all three are worth losing sleep over.

Life is one long cuddle for these three babies. Tucked up in bed with their toys, they can lie back and relax in the knowledge that someone loves them. Their real mothers abandoned them but two tireless foster mothers are working round the clock to keep the youngsters happy and contented. Molly Badham and Natalie Evans feed them every three hours at Twycross Zoo in Leicestershire. Assante, the 8-day-old gorilla, Becky the 2-week-old chimpanzee and Lee, the 3-week-old orangutan are all doing fine. And Molly and Natalie reckon that all three are worth losing sleep over. In this heartwarming photograph captured in June 1985 by Mirrorpix, we witness a beautiful display of friendship among these adorable creatures - apes and monkeys who have found solace in each other's company during their early days of life. The innocence radiating from their sleepy faces as they snuggle together melts our hearts instantly. Despite being abandoned by their biological mothers, fate has brought these little ones under the loving care of Molly Badham and Natalie Evans at Twycross Zoo. These dedicated foster mothers tirelessly provide nourishment every few hours while ensuring an environment filled with love for Assante, Becky, and Lee. As we gaze upon this image frozen in time, it serves as a reminder that even amidst adversity, bonds can be formed between unlikely companions. The sight of these precious babies nestled together brings us joy while highlighting the resilience of nature
