It may be an unusual friendship group in the wild but for this pack of baby animals it’s just an everyday play date with their pals.

Kangaroos and gibbons play peacefully alongside tiger cubs at Dades City Wild Things safari park in Florida.

And we couldn’t resist showing you the adorable footage of the group at play.

Complete with nappy changes, bottle feeding and toe sucking, it seems to be one big happy and furry family.

“In captivity, their life is totally different, they are not fighting to defend their territory,” says zoo director Kathy Stearns.

So these animals have to develop social skills instead, which are really important to give them enrichment,” Kathy continued.

The zoo allows the public to interact with the animals and feels it is important for them to protect the future of these species.
