A Heartbreaking Moment When A Dying Zoo Worker Received Final Kisses From Giraffes

Who will stay beside us at the time we’re gonna leave this world?

Animals have more heart than human beings. This is precious.
So sad so wonderful he got to see them one more time.

Mario Ejis worked at the Rotterdam’s Diergaarde Blijdorp zoo in the Netherlands as maintenance staff for 25 years.
But Mario battled terminal can.cer and was unable to go to work for some time. In 2014, the zoo worker knew that he didn’t have much time left, so he made one last request – he wanted to see the zoo again.

And he was transported to the hospital in a specially designed ambulance so he could his friends again.

Something incredible happened when Mario was taken to the giraffe section.
It was a heartbreaking sight to watch as the giraffes moved close to the [ambulance] carrying Mario, sticking their heads one after the other through the window. They could sense that he was in a lot of [pa.in] and was [suffering] greatly. They nuzzled him, kissed and comforted him with sa.d expressions in their eyes.

These animals recognized him, and felt that “things aren’t” going well with him.

He had the opportunity to see the zoo that used to be his home one last time. He also got a chance to say goodbye to his co-workers.

Animals are the most beautiful and ethereal beings. They see, feel and touch our souls in unimaginable ways. The depth of their senses is a gift to those who unconditionally love and respect these amazing creatures gifted to us by our magnificent Creator.
