Son Holds Mom's Hand As She Kisses His New Baby Sister

Great video of Chester Zoo's baby with mother Sarikei hiding under a sack.
The Realm of the Red Ape at Chester Zoo has an indoor rain system to simulate the Bornean
Orangutan's natural habitat and to maintain the humidity. The Orangutans use the sacks to
shelter from the rain just as they would use large leaves in the wild.
Babies have an amazing built in instinct present from birth to hold on tight to their mother thick long chestnut coloured hair and this baby girl gives us a fantastic demonstration of that instinctive skill in this video as she holds on tight to mom underneath her as she looks for food during a scatter feed around the Chester Zoo indoor enclosure
Sarikei's son Tombol also makes a brief appearance in this video as he joins mom grazing on their snacks
This video is the latest in a fairly long series of videos featuring the baby orangutan at 1 month old recorded in October 2023

The adorable 1 month old baby is 40 year old Sarikei's 4th baby and is a wonderful ray of hope to the survival of these amazing rare critically endangered animals
The love Sarikei she has for her new baby is so apparent in this adorable animal video clip!
We have released many videos of this adorable baby girl are available to watch on this channel and more videos have been recorded of the baby at different progressive stages of her development over the last 4 months and will follow this series in order of recording date

Chester Zoo Baby Orangutans
Birth of critically endangered orangutan at Chester Zoo
Chester Zoo is has a very successful record of Orangutan births at the zoo and most of the Orangutan Mothers are able to rear their own young without the assistance of zoo staff, this is largely due to the expert care and facilities the World Class Zoo provides for the animals.
The current animal population have had valuable experience with babies and have observed relatives caring for young, using this learning and experience to enable them to rear their own offspring

Critically Endangered Orangutans
Bornean Orangutans have been considered critically endangered since 2016 with an only an estimated 100,000 left in the wild. They are seriously in danger of extinction which makes the birth of this new baby orangutan very special indeed
