It’s natural for most animals in the world to be caring mothers to the offspring they give birth too. No matter the species, mothers will care for their young, provide food, shelter, and protection from any danger.

But not too many animals will adopt youngsters from other species, and raise them as their own. This is a more rare occurrence in nature, except for hens. It seems hens will adopt almost anyone and will be great mothers to both their own chicks and the other baby animals as well.

It’s quite awesome, and you can check it out below:
