Baby Orangutan Playing

Here is a video of a baby orangutan playing. CUTE! If you love animals watch this. It will brighten your day. Orangutans are an endangered species. The best way to save them is by saving their habitat in the wild. When you visit zoos ask them if they are accredited & if they participate in any of the Species Survival Plans though the AZA? Also ask them if they support the saving of the animals & their natural habitats in the wild? This baby was born is a good accredited facility & will never be a part of the exotic pet trade & she will never be part of the performing animal acts. When she was healthy enough she was transferred to live with an orangutan surrogate mother & did not remain under the care of humans any longer than it was needed for her health. In the wild orangutans stay with their mothers for 8 years so this baby orangutan needed an orangutan surrogate mother and got one.

so sad that it doesnt have its real mom to play with

[LaWannaJones]

Thatitalianguy84, her real mom was truly unable to care for her.

This is so depressing that her last memory with her mother is to be duplicated with a stuffed animal, she is attempting to kiss it and love it. SAD.....

[LaWannaJones]

99% of the time she had a person holding and playing with her. Her mother was truly truly unable to care for her. They searched and searched and finally found a surrogate mother who would accept her.

I own an exotic animal rescue with about 16 big cats, 20 monkeys, six bears, six wolves, 30 exotic hoof stock, 20 farm animals, 30 small mammals, 20 birds, and fifty reptiles. I am currently in the process of expanding in order to take in abouts twice that many animals.

orangutans are my absolute favorite animal, and it brakes my heart to see all those animals being killed and kept as pets. I do wish i could be able to take care of one but surely not if i had an unsafe environment. I love these guys and want to do anything and everything to prevent extinction of these great animals. I thank you for making this touching video and hope more people can see it.

I've had first-hand experience of the exotic pet trade - and let me tell you it is no joke. What people don't realise is that orangutans are difficult to look after. I was fortunate enough to buy one for a reasonable price, but didn't know how to look after it. It's hair started falling out, it stopped taking food and it starved to death. I asked for my money back but my dealer refused. I couldn't go to the police either because it was an illegal transaction. Buyers beware!
