Marmoset cares for dying partner

For all those who think that humans are the only creatures who feel compassion, or who doubt that we share a common ancestor with other primates, here is a news story which shows love and compassion in a different species. A male, hugging his partner and staying with her as she passes away.

"Such behaviour is astounding" said the scientists - what are they - morons? Why is it astounding. I can't believe it!

But what a touching story, thank you so much for sharing.
