I was pretty tempted to make an "Oh My!" joke to start this off, but I thought better of it. Especially because the lion, tiger, and bear in the video above are named after characters from The Jungle Book, not TheWizard Of Oz.

I have to say, this story of three unlikely friends is pretty amazing.

Baloo, Leo and Shere Khan (collectively known as BLT) live at Noah's Ark Sanctuary in Georgia, and they have no idea that they wouldn't have ever met under any other circumstances. All three were saved 13 years ago from terrible conditions at the home of a drug dealer, and have lived together in perfect harmony in their own enclosure every since.

According to their keepers, it's not just that they not only get along; they actively seek out each other's affection.
