*Courtesy petadoptionbangalore, below is a photo of its viral video showcasing the monkey with the body of his caretaker, Munna Singh, a farmer from Deoghar in Jharkhand.
"Why did I cry uncontrollably after watching this video? His loss seemed a bit too personal."
Another user commented, "Here relatives are busy killing each other, people are not able to recognize each other, and an animal has taught us all humility. This video teaches us a lot."
They are not odd cases. Several users took to the comments section to share their reactions on a video doing rounds on the internet.
The video shows a monkey attending the last rites of his caretaker, Munna Singh, a farmer from Deoghar in Jharkhand.
In the video, the monkey can be seen by the side of the man until the last rites are performed.
The video was shared by an Instagram page, "Pet Adoption Bangalore Trust", and has garnered nearly 1.6 million views since it was posted.
The monkey can be seen sitting by the side of his caretaker's dead body before the rituals began.
Reports say that Singh used to take care of the monkey and feed him every day, and the two eventually developed a deep bond.
The video is also a reminder of the unique relationship that humans tend to develop with animals.
The monkey can also be seen 'kissing' Munna Singh's body before the last rites began. The caption of the video reads "In today's society, where even close relatives do not attend funerals. Gave Last Kiss. Here is a Monkey who attended the funeral and last rites of a person who used to feed him daily."
A comment from "Pet Adoption Bangalore Trust" reads, "He gave his last kiss, and refused to leave!!"
