💤 🐵 As the Zoo’s great apes prepare to go to sleep, they make their beds, then settle in. Just like their wild counterparts, orangutans in zoos build cozy nests! Where an orangutan chooses to snooze at night can give keepers insight into their social preferences. CURATOR Q&A: https://s.si.edu/2NUTdFA. (Link in bio.) #InternationalOrangutanDay

freeganzookeeper @galwayevan there are several studies showing orangutans are more creative and less neophobic in captivity AND that they actually *prefer* to view guests rather than be out of view🤗 I can DM the links if you like! Jane Goodall said it best (in regards to chimps but I think it applies to all species) “that’s what some of these animal rights people can’t get their minds around, it’s what they think is best for the chimp. I want people to think about what the chimp would prefer. So if you’re a chimp, your best choices may be to be in a secure place in the wild, or a really good zoo.”🖤

remmiedo We need to end palm oil obsession and save orangs’ . We need more and more sweet photos of them to spur people on💜💜💜🧡🧡💛
