  • The paints are non-toxic (just like used in schools) and are completely safe.

    Towan actually seems to get great enjoyment from his painting sessions, hauling away his canvas and concentrating, sometimes for an hour or more, as he carefully dabs his choice of colors of paint.

  • Great enrichment! He is very interested and curious.

  • He's better than  some modern artists...

  • I don't think thats very nice....is the paint even good for him to eat! because I love these animals and am happy to see them run free like their supposed to and tho looking at these animals face to face is very nice but not to nice when you get the feeling their not happy at all so it dissapoints me to see all of these well painting so pls take more care of them and don't entertain maybe with eating yes but PAINTING!? for gods sake!

  • Poor Towan; though his "work" is certainly beautiful, he doesn't seem to enjoy the act of painting. He looks rather interested in licking/eating the paint.

    Poor old guy.

    Love orangutans.
