well not really,
Nationa-park guards, of the Haller national-park in Mombasa in Kenya, rescued a hippo named Owen after he got lost away from his mom and was taken by the Tsunami in the Indian ocean on December 26th last year. Since Owen arrived at the park he has taken fondness of a giant turtle and looks at the turtle as his mum although the turtle is male.

Heres is a picture of this odd couple:
