Young chimpanzee brothers pour their hearts out in viral video

It is not only humans who display intense emotions after they meet following prolonged separation, sometimes animals too feel the same as visible from a recent viral video of two young chimpanzee brothers.

The value of family is often understood by those who have been separated from theirs; this was the scenario which was recently witnessed in a viral video on social media featuring two chimpanzees.

In the video, which has been making rounds on the internet, the emotion of 'family bond' was on full display. The viral clip, shared on Twitter, showed two chimpanzee brothers reuniting with each other in an adorable manner.

Excited to see each other after a long time, the two young chimps met and indulged in a long warm hug and showered kisses on each other. The moment was beautiful yet heart-breaking simultaneously.

The video which was shared by Buitengebieden on Twitter was captioned, "Rescued from captivity, these two brothers were separated for treatment in two different locations. After they recovered, they were reunited."

The expression of love between these chips melted the hearts of several Twitter users. One of them wrote, "Hope they can be released one day together, or if not go to monkey world in Dorset and live out their days together. What we as humans do to animals and their natural habitat is beyond disgraceful. How moving is this clip? Families matter to animals too !"

Another one shared, "Why separate them in the first place? Some people see a joyful reunion, I see two traumatized animals desperate to comfort each other after time apart. It's happy and unspeakably sad."

"Because family bonds can never be broken. Hope these two find a nice sanctuary to stay a family," tweeted another user.
