Title: “Unlikely Friendships: 47 Remarkable Stories from the Animal Kingdom”
Author: Jennifer Holland
Rank: 68
Blurb: “Unlikely Friendships documents one heartwarming tale after another of animals who, with nothing else in common, bond in the most unexpected ways. A cat and a bird. A mare and a fawn. An elephant and a sheep. A snake and a hamster.”
Review: “I have to say that this may not be a book for sensitive children. One story is about a lioness who (unbelievably) adopts a baby Oryx, caring for it as if it were her own cub. As she is resting, weak with starvation from refusing to leave it, the Oryx wanders off, when a male lion ‘snatched it up’. She ‘sniffed the blood of her baby in the grass’ and helplessly watched the male ‘devour it’.”

Or the Canada City allegory about the Elephant (US America) and the Mouse (Canada City.)
It usually ends badly for the mouse.
Did they include Justices Ginsburg and Scalia?
Or Newt and Callista?
