First Person: Zoo Staff Cares for Baby Orangutan

[fredfinizzi]

a primate in a zoo......that makes it a prisoner and if you experts are so smart why are you keeping an animal in a zoo where it will never have the freedom to live the way it was born to live? experts....yeah right

[sethmusic]

[ttlghost]

[darkiz7]

why that african american mother rejected his lil niglet? did the welfare office turned her down?

[TeEhEzILzollie]

@darkiz7 thats cold

[MsKahla]

@darkiz7 I'm pretty sure we can find dumb creatures all over, not only on orangutans, or specific races, as an example when I read comments like yours, I don't stop and say?: is probably and dumb toothless redneck as at times comes to mind, but try not to feel frustrated at the ignorance of so many as for example many gorilas and other species flee to other areas and urban zones, thanks to ignorant morons that don't any better, look for educations hun, don't portray yourself so poorly.

[darkiz7]

@MsKahla educations? where do i love for educations?

[MsKahla]

Why didnt mom keep the baby?

[masterman3178]

@Humberto4790 some times animals reject there young for diffrent reasons they did not say the reason but it could be a number of things.

[DoNotLaughAtMe]

@Humberto4790 Because We use their mother as food, and when they are all fattened up, reproduce, we will eat them. It's the cycle of having orangutan meat :)

looks like an asian baby

[Humberto4790]

@KirbyPwnz13 Lol.

[theravenweeps]

When they burn and clear cut the forests in Borneo, Orangutans have been seen fleeing from the forests, on fire. I read that in the Nat'l Geo Mag. Some countries do not understand the treasure they have but knowledge is power. This is a lucky little creature.

[maikal22]

I want to hug that Orangutan right the fuck now !!!

[rmsolympic1]

Not being funny, but: that baby orangutan looks dead on Lil Wayne.

[pretendosse]

0:46 awwwww!!!

[exacerbatedtaboo]

Oh look! The zoo staff is doing their job. Now imagine if the headline read. "Zoo staff says baby Orangutan has to die cause mother rejected her"

[LovinLearnin]

sooo cute!

[yuriythebest]

orangutan babies are cuter than human ones.

[riamayes]

@yuriythebest You must have been one ugly baby if an orangutan looks better than you.
