An orphaned baby monkey, who was attacked by a pack of dogs in Kanskheda, Madhya Pradesh village, has been adopted by a stray dog who now acts as the animal’s surrogate mother.

According to reports, the dog who rescued the monkey is called Ruby and she does not have any puppies of her own.

She is now seen by locals wandering through the Kanskheda village with the monkey on his back.

Suresh, the dog’s owner, told reporters that the dog keeps a protective eye on the monkey whenever he leaves her back.

“The baby monkey was roaming along in the area when a pack of dogs surrounded him. Before they could rip him apart, my dog Ruby intervened and saved his life. It has been more than one and a half months since the pair became the centre of attention in the entire village,” the owner of the dog was quoted by DailyMail.

“The bitch which does not have any pup considers the monkey as her own child and is very protective of him,” Suresh added.

After pictures of the dog and the monkey were shared on social media, they became the talk of the town in Seoni Malwa of Hoshangabad district. Now, people from other villages come to Kanskheda just to get a glimpse of the duo, said Suresh.
