— -- A viral video shows a tortoise helping a friend get back on its feet after the second tortoise found itself flipped upside down, stuck on its shell.

The video was captured by YouTube user AuDi Yu in November at the Taipei Zoo in Taiwan.

The helpful tortoise can be seen assessing the situation, stepping around the immobilized reptile and ramming forward with the edge of its shell. Onlookers watched and cheered at the friendly gesture.

After the second tortoise was flipped upright again, the friends could be seen walking away, one following the other.
