Description
of changes in their cages
o·rang·u·tan - An arboreal anthropoid ape (Pongo pygmaeus) of Borneo and Sumatra, having a shaggy reddish-brown coat, very long arms, and no tail. From the Malay orang hutan: man of the forest.
They are very close to us genetically. They laugh, they cry, they care for their young. They are peaceful creatures and are critically engangered in the wild.
This little guy seemed very pensive. I wonder what he was thinking about?

Maybe he is wanting some of that rum off the zookeeper. Stunning detail on zoom! I like your framing. It may have stemmed from necessity, but it is very effective and well done. Wonderful capture of his eyes and expression. Beautiful and haunting shot.

... and the zookeeper is very fond of rum ... Such a look! It really does make you stop, doesn't it? Wonderful portrait.

I bet he thinks they same as we would, if we were in his place. I always feel so sad when I see them in zoos. He obviously has great intelligence. Wonderful portrait!
