An adorable toddler melts hearts by sharing his pizza with a squirrel. The youngster made a very unexpected friend by deploying a tasty, time-tested method. Watch the short clip for the sweet, heartwarming moment when the two bonded over the delicious food.

No two people are exactly 100 percent alike. Everyone is different, with their own unique set of likes, dislikes, tastes and preferences. Arguably, these differences are most readily visible when it comes to food. Tastes vary wildly among people. For instance, some may find guacamole and avocados delicious, while others may feel as if they are the scourge of the earth and cannot understand how any human being could ingest something so revolting.

Despite all our differences and peculiarities regarding food, there is one universally loved dish: pizza. Whether you are a vegan, a vegetarian, a meat eater or have some food allergy, there is a pizza that is sure to satisfy your appetite and diet.

A cute, touching clip posted on social media shows that the love of pizza apparently extends beyond human beings. Even some members of the animal community seem to understand and enjoy the deliciousness that is pizza.

The clip shows a young man, a toddler, who has just encountered a squirrel. The youngster, who was able to get shockingly close to the squirrel, carries with him a couple of slices of pizza, one of which he extends out toward the tiny animal.

Initially, the squirrel starts to dart away but seems to rethink this decision, apparently intrigued by what the young man is offering it. Eventually, the squirrel allows the child to get close enough to it to the point where he actually places the pizza in the squirrel’s tiny paws. Once the squirrel has secured the pizza, it darts away to enjoy its meal.

See, you can become friends with anyone, even wild animals. It just requires a little pizza.
