Wulan shows Betty how to access some tasty treats. Our team stuff bamboo canes with fruit and vegetables to encourage foraging and improve the orangutans' problem solving skills. Orangutans learn everything they need to know from their mothers but when they are orphaned, like Betty, it falls to their human carers and the older orangutans to teach them vital life skills. This video demonstrates ...

Staff- your my hero
Love these guys❤
She is just just so pretty and sweet l hope her dress come true
I sat and cried these beautiful orangutans and yet they still trust humans
Just beautiful. I feel badly when seeing a zoo orangutan sitting on the ground. Of course I realize that the majority of zoo do their best to provide orangs with climbing opportunities and mental stimulation
(:(])
BOS- giving souls a second chance
Some humans are really really unkind
Or-angs are my favorite primate. 🥰 🦧
Loveeee
What's up with the Irish music? Are these O'Rangutans?
I was lucky enough to volunteer at the orangutan centre before the covid it is a wonderful place and the staff do such a great job . I learnt so much and loved every minute I was there 🐵😘
You are so lucky to have experienced the beautiful orange apes ! Thank you for helping !
Hey!! What happened of tondua , bidus friend ? Pls let us know
She an independent girl, didn't ask for help from the human.
I do not care for, nor donate to this Sepilok Rehab. Because their policy of little to no physical affection toward these baby orangutans, from the caretakers so greatly disturbs me. Especially during the first 4 years of life, and even more so for the first 2,..its an emotional and instinctive NEED to hold onto, and be held and hugged and cuddled by their caretakers. This Rehab facility denies them that. And you can see how desperately these babies want and need it. The staff obviously does care for them, or they wouldn't be there. Yes they feed them, give them vet care. Hold their hands while they walk them, or carry them by the hands to vet visits and they lift them up to the trees and ropes etc. But no physical hugs or holding them tight to them as they carry them or feed them. No kisses or tickles. The babies are lucky if they get their heads stroked once in awhile. The little babies who are normally held and carried and cuddled by their mother's, are not held and cuddled by their caretakers, even while being fed their bottles. They are fed their bottles through the bars of the cages they are left to sit in most of the day and night. (From about 4 months on I believe). The babies stick their little hands out to be cuddled. But no. The staff will hold their hands. But that's it. It's heartbreaking to see how desperately these little ones want to be cuddled. If the staff holds them at all, it's to carry them to the vet or out to the ropes. And they carry them with their backs to them, and lift them onto the ropes. If the babies try to reach out to be cuddled their hands are turned away. I can only imagine what goes through these poor babes minds, as their natural instinct to hug is constantly denied. I understand that during the climbing lessons they have to stay focused, but before and after, no hugs and snugs? If there is more than one baby on the ropes, you can see them move toward eachother and cling. Just to get that instinctive NEED fulfilled for a few minutes. ...Apparently...Sepilok has this policy because "Somebody" at the head, seems to think, they will get attached to humans and when released in the wild they might go right up to a human stranger. However, all of the other Orangutan Rehab places would strongly disagree with this viewpoint. They raise these babies with all the physical love and hugs and cuddles and these babies need. While still giving them the vet care and forest school training they need to be ready for release in the wild. And they have successfully released many. As one of them has even stated, as the baby grows, the more independent they become, and the less physical affection they need. They naturally desire being held or hugged less and less. By the time they are 6 or 7, they will allow being led or held by the hand but not much into hugging. Once released, into the pre-release forrests, they rarely even approach the monitors they know, and only close enough to get the food the monitors put on the feeding stations. But these babies are alot like human babies and toddlers. Human babes and toddlers need physical affection and cuddles, or it can cause emotional and psychological issues in the child. (I am an early development Child Psychologist) And these little Orangutans instinctively need it even MORE. It seems to me, and apparently, all the other rehab facilities, that the possible emotional damage this "no physical affection" policy is causing, far out weighs the unlikely danger that the released adult orangutans might approach a human stranger someday.
Are there any rescued orangutans in Malaysia recently?
The problem I have with this facility, as compared to the other Orangutan Rehab places...Is the lack of physical embrace from the staff to the Orangutans. Especially the babies. I have been watching their videos. They feed the little 1 year old babies through bars of cages. If the pick them up, its,only to carry them to vets. And they carry them, with their backs to them. The other places hold the babies close to them while feeding them and just plain giving them love and affection. I have never seen anyone at this facility do that. The other places also hold and cuddle the 2 and 3 and 4 and 5 year olds. They don't do that here. They hold their hands, lead them. Or carry them by their hands. And they lift them up on the ropes or trees. But that's it. And you can tell these babies want so bad to be held and hugged and cuddled. Especially the tiny ones. But they don't do that here. I feel so bad for them. For that reason. I dont donate to this one. I donate to the ones who don't have as modern of a facility, but give the Orangutans the love and hugs they need, along with the medical care and schooling.
I never noticed that but you’re right. I did hear an explanation about that though. Saying they limit human contact so the orangutan can be as wild as possible and not come to rely on human so much. Not saying it’s right but could be their reasoning too.
I wonder if it’s possible to set aside huge amounts of land in a safe country with appropriate weather, for these primates and other primates as well. Maybe Costa Rica? Florida? Australia? There are so many problems regarding the treatment of these precious beings within these countries, so why not start populations in better more safe countries? There are a ton of islands as well.
The only place in earth that sustains the variety and numbers of fruiting trees to accommodate orangutan life are 1)Sumatra and 2)Borneo. It’s not happnin in Florida, hon…
@@jonaswhite5842 What about the other place as I mentioned? Florida could have a ton of fruit trees if someone wanted to plant them. Macaques have been living there for over 100 years.
You would think since they are sooooo intelligent, they could adapt to new hones
👏👏👏👏❤❤❤
Hes so big and lanky now :)
Hopefully the quiet means there is a halt in palm oil destruction. Even if its just for a little bit-it helps tremendously.
Oh, I’m sure the bulldozers were out in full force..
