Feeding A Baby Orangutan

Feeding a Baby Orangutan who doesn't have her mother can be intertesting. Did you know that baby orangutans have to learn to walk just like human babies do. Did you know they have to learn to swing too. In the wild baby orangutans need to stay with their mothers for eight years to learn all they need to know to be an orangutan. This great ape is an endangered species. That means unless things change these magnificent animals will become extinct. Extinction is forever. Visit www.ZooFun4u.com & www.Return2eden.org to learn more about saving endangered species in the wild. You will also find free games, puzzles, screensavers, wallpapers and even Free Holiday Letters. Yes that includes free Santa Letters too.

it's really my dream to once in my lifetime bottlefeed an orangutan, tiger or panda baby.

These creatures are so precious, we should immediately stop destroying their habitats.

TheFlush: The wild animals should NEVER BE PETS!! I never works out well for the animal.

if your gonna get a pet ape you better treat it like this

[LaWannaJones]

This video was not intended to promote having one as a pet. They do NOT make good pets. They belong in the wild.

You are right baby great apes depend upon their mothers just as much as we humans do. These animals should never be pets but many of them are being taken from their mothers in the wild and placed into the illegal pet trade. We MUST support bans on priavte ownership of exotic animals like orangutans.

Enough with the graphics already. Only :30 of actual video. Let it speak for itself.

The Youtube audience is intellegent enough to understand.

I changed a chimp's diaper once, or ten times.. was like a level in dante's inferno. :oP

I filmed this project from the time she was only a couple months old until her send off at the age of 21 months. She is now close to 5 years old and all orangutan, well as much as one can be in a zoo. The facility she was at did not advertise her as a baby, that I liked.

[LaWannaJones]

NOT A LIE. They tried hard to get her mother to care for her. When she was 21 months old she was transferred to another facility where she could be raised by a surragate orangutan instead of humans. However, before she could go there, she had to be well and big enough to survivie with the other older orang that mother was also raising.

[LaWannaJones]

Was not the case. They tried really hard to get the mother to care for her.

[CoyKiyote]

I swear, I think it's these sanctuaries that are causing most of the orphaned apes! Baby chimps and orangs bring in a LOT of donations because they're such good PR material.

[CharlieDoan]

law of nature. Let nature taking care of it. Not nesessary to do this because human need for human first, that orange monkey will survive enough for next generations. Human just worry for human because we will destroy ourselve if we want to by 1 BUTTON of either side : Free world or Communist . So, I think not need to baby sitter so much like Australian or American do. Worry for human first :African baby instead a baby orange monkey.
