The say love comes in all shapes and sizes, but this is one “unconventional” relationship that has us going “awwww” over and over again.
Changmao the ram and Chunzi the doe are apparently in love and were “married” just this past Valentine’s Day! Changmao the ram and Chunzi the doe were raised together in one group at the The Yunnan Provincial Wildlife Park in China. After a while, zookeepers noticed their affection for one another, like Chunzi often licking Changmao and Changmao warding off other male deer that would try to steal the doe’s affections.
After a local news team did a story on the pair, they became celebrities. But, like any good love story, it’s had its ups and downs. Chamungo “cheated” on Chunzi and fathered a baby lamb. He was separated from Chunzi last November to be with the ewe and their little lamb, but he became restless and violent. Chunzi would also try to squeeze through the fence to be near him. (Hello, Pixar? We have your next animated movie plot.)
So, the zoo put the two crazy kids back together and held a ceremony for them to forever be bonded by “matrimony” on Valentine’s Day.
Check out the ceremony below!
Chamungo, if EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND has taught us anything, it’s that you shouldn’t ever tape over this wedding video with a sports game…
