Hamster, Snake Best Friends at Tokyo Zoo

I totally missed this when it was in the news. How funny is this story! In a Zoo on the outskirts of Tokyo there is a dwarf hamster (named Gohan) and a Japanese rat snake (named Aochan) that live together in the same cage, when of course normally the snake would eat poor Gohan when she was put in the cage but the snake didn't eat her and they have been living together happily every since :) Have a look at the video below and read the news story on Abc News International.
