In a heartwarming clip from the PBS version of the BBC Series "Spy in the Wild", a spy bushbaby captured the gentle and caring relationship between an older wild chimp and the tiny genet kitten whom the primate adopted as his own. When a curious and larger alpha chimp handled the kitten roughly, the older chimp immediately stepped in to get his little friend to a much safer environment.
