The mother looks sad sitting in wood shavings amidst iron cages holding her sweet baby. I truly know the orangutans are endangered, but so pray they could be in a more natural environment.
@@emmas1082 idk where this particular location is but this isn’t their usual place, they just built a new orangutan enclosure at chester zoo, theres a lot more greenery and space for the orangutans
@@debbiecoonse980 it's so funny you responded today, I had forgotten about it! I do believe you're right!! I was watching Monkey Life just a few days ago and a couple had relinquished their pet lemur. The director of the place was doing all the paperwork and in-processing stuff and they showed her doing full hand prints of her for identification. So now we know that lemurs have fingerprints, I'd be willing to bet most, if not all, primates do 😊 Something else I recently learned (on that same show!) Spider Monkeys dont have thumbs at all, just their 4 fingers!! I thought all primates did; that our opposable thumbs is one of the things that set us apart. What I thought was super interesting, since they don't have thumbs, they cant really groom like other species. Monkeys and apes use grooming as a way of bonding and keeping close relationships within their families and troops. Spider monkeys can't so their societal structure evolved differently to make up for it; they hug and cuddle instead! Isn't that funny? I mean, makes perfect sense. Makes them even more like us, we hug instead of grooming each other 😂 Ok so I won't keep blabbering on! Thanks for responding and have a great weekend! 🥰
This is so sad. Poor baby will never know what it feels like to be free. I don’t agree with zoos. Locking animals up to put on attraction for peoples entertainment.
If you really want to play with baby orangutans you have to get a job as a stewardess and then start a orphanage where you just collect baby orangutans and play with him all day
Mother and baby both have such delicate hands and fingers. More so than a gorilla's. They seem so much like humans.
We share 98% DNA with the Orangs n 99% with the chimps
OMG those cheeks of the baby but those eye of mom...so sweet and beautiful. The way the baby looks up at mom just studying moms face
I love the motherhood instinct kicks-in.
💖Beautiful creation 💖
Orangutans are my favorite! Love this gentle giants of the forest ❤️❤️🦧🦧🥰🥰🥰🥰

Congrats. On your new son. His beautiful.

Like looking in a mirror, isn't it?
She is so mesmerized by the baby, she probably is not aware of the environment!
@@solitairecatnaps4444 like any sensible human mother, she is probably thinking: dear god, what have i done?
I agree. There’s nothing in that cage but wood shavings. She probably feels very exposed there.

It's almost like they have 4 hands, so beautiful ❤️🤗 and such a great momma
I have always wondered if their hands have fingerprints? Their hands are so like ours, it would not surprise me! 😊
@@freidaelliott8769 if I remember right on one of the zoo shows I seen on tv they do have fingerprints

We don't know what is hand and what is foot.😅
So much beauty mon and baby. Love baby. Fed her mom.
This is no place for such a majestic ape like this. It's like watching your family member locked up in jail for life.
The baby is so beautiful. Thank you
What a precious baby! I love orangutan and gorilla babies ❤
The way he looks at Mom
Awww what a Sweet Momma and Baby❤
Looks like Cindy Lou Who with red hair!!
My, little darling ... what long fingers you have...😍
Baby Grinch!

So precious
Looks like the grinch
Good mom😍😍

Hiii...sweetyyy....
You have to go to Borneo forest, that is your place
😙😙😙
Too bad that forest is almost completely destroyed
Sumatran forest, please.
Hermoso. Los amooo
Beautiful.

They look so tame and bored. They need to get a bunch of inner city kids with paint guns to " lite em up!!"
Cuteness overload 💕
Did she yank him up by the hair on his head? Ouch!!! They seem so rough with their babies.
❤️❤️❤️
Mommy's in love 😍😍😍
One of the cutest baby orangutans I’ve ever seen🥰❤️
If you took all the money that we waste at the zoos we could stop the palm oil production and let them live weather supposed to be
What dies Greta das?
Una monada porque es raro?
FEED YOUR BABY❗
If zoos didn't take animals for breeding programs, some animals would dwendel away.
Doesn’t this baby looks like the characters from The Grinch?
the baby’s blonde tips near their ears are so adorable, I cannot 🥺🥰
Just grab him/her by the hair...GET OVER HERE!! LOL
Beautiful
Absolutely adorable & precious ❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
💛 🧡 ❤️ 🧡 💛
Such a good Mommy ❤️
Love kisses
🦧
I go to this zoo
It’s such an unnatural environment I just can’t get behind it I’m sorry. These poor animals belong in the rainforest not for you to play Mother

We need to take action and stop canola oil farming if we're going to save these amazing creatures 🦧
