According to Frances Ramos, a public relations specialist for the wildlife foundation, the four-legged friends often play in an animal encounter room where guests can visit and interact with them.  

“We let the animals play so they can become better acquainted,” Ramos told InsideEdition.com. “It is safe for the otter to be with the lion because there is also supervision around.”

Although the two wouldn’t cross paths in the wild, thanks to the volunteers at the conservation, Bosu and Kappa can chase each other’s tails to their heart’s content.
