    I watch Baby Orangutans for months now and for me they are the sweetest babies ever!!! And thanks to every care center in Borneo who saved Babies from the Pet trade and all the other sad Orphants! The good thing about a Zoo is that the baby's are really growing up clinging to mom and mom doesn't get killed off!

      I know.... I am obsessed with orangutans and gorillas right now. They are the most adorable babies. Chimp babies are cute too but the adults are kind of rough and crazy sometimes lol. There is a higher rate of chimp babies dying because chimp mothers aren't as careful as gorilla and orangutan mothers.

    To see Tuti holding that baby on her hip and walking around is the cutest!! And when she was CAREFULLY trying to lay on her back and balance the baby on her feet I was holding my breath. But mom was right there and was watching closely but really trusted Tuti! This is the first time I have seen the babysitting training with a mom other than their own. Pretty remarkable given how fiercely momma orans are of their babies with ANYONE else. This was so great to see and truly appreciate the opportunity to observe these great creatures!

How beautiful it was to watch Tuti playing mom with her baby sister. I seriously have to visit this Zoo, I always see such great photos of the animals there. I can tell they take really good care of them :)

      I think it’s a substitute for leaves. Wild Orangutans use leaves for all sorts of things: to make their nests, shelter from rain and sun like umbrellas, and bandages. The bags serve the same utility, but are easier to handle and make observation easy for Zoo keepers. Similar thing in Indianapolis zoo apparently, their Orangutan center looks nothing like a forest, but it’s designed to emulate a forest in terms of utility for enrichment of orangutans.

      She is teacher her baby the basics in movement, behavior, what and what not to eat, and generally what she knows.
      This is a welfare accredited non profit facility built to encourage and allow the use of these behaviors in a non Wild situation.
      Thing is whether in the wild or not these behaviors and gentle knowledge are vital to be passed down from generation to generation because when the species gets to a point where the populations in human care are sustainable enough to start rewinding viable animals.

      Of course they are not in a natural environment but have the behavioral conditioning and enrichment made by specialist behavioralist and conservation based zoologist to give them regiments to learn and teach these Behaviors.
