He lives with him around the clock.’ In an unlikely match, a baby chimp and a lynx cub have become the best of friends.

Best friends chimpanzee Varli and lynx Sutra
A lynx is a medium-sized wildcat with a short tail and tufts of black hair on the tips of its ears. The smallest of the species are the bobcat and Canada lynx while the largest is the Eurasian lynx. It is not the first time friendly Varli has made an unlikely pal. Earlier this year he was pictured having a great time with a five-month grizzly bear called Bam Bam in the same wildlife park.
