"[Baboons] will sometimes 'kidnap' feral dog pups to raise as pets and keep for protection, eventually forming a symbiotic relationship." - emocliae

"The 'adoption process' is closer to kidnapping than rescuing, so be warned — the first couple of minutes make for some pretty rough viewing." -The Daily What
