Mamas Of The Animal Kingdom Will Fill Your Heart With Hope

The animal kingdom is full of mamas raising their adorable young. These wild mothers teach their offspring valuable lessons about survival. Sometimes, though, babies just want to play. When these heartwarming moments are caught on camera, even the coldest heart will melt. These are our favorite pictures of mamas in the wild with their munchkins. Stick around to see a monkey mama keeping its baby warm in the cold!

These animals are rare in the wild, but efforts to bring the species back have become commonplace in the United Kingdom. The release of this cub into the reserve to reunite with its mama took place on International Tiger Day in 2015.
