The teen who befriended deer over the summer is making new animal friends

Last summer, the internet was introduced to beautiful friendships between a Pennsylvania high schooler named Kelvin Peña and a few deer he named Money and Canela. They often stop by his house to eat and occasionally play a lopsided game of pickup basketball.

Since then, he’s befriended even more animals in various parts of the world (which he documents on his Instagram), and was even the subject of two documentaries from Super Deluxe. He’s even done good things with his internet fame, creating the Everybody Eats Foundation to help single-parent families and other underprivileged people.

At 18, he’s showing no signs of stopping; his latest animal friendship video shows him in New York City feeding a group of pigeons and a squirrel.

It’s fascinating how Peña makes connections with the pigeons ... mostly. There was a moment where too many pigeons landed on his hand and it freaked him out a bit — everything turned chill by the end, though. We’re glad to see him continuing to make more animal friends, and while it’s fun to watch that happen, it’s also really cool to see his generosity; after his pigeon video, he and his friends spent the night feeding the homeless with New York-style pizza.
