Memories, a San Francisco trip… 10 years ago.

 

The Orangutans are two species of great apes known for their intelligence, long arms and reddish-brown hair. Native to Indonesia and Malaysia, they are currently found only in rainforests on the islands of Borneo and Sumatra, though fossils have been found in Java, Vietnam and China. They are the only surviving species in the genus Pongo and the subfamily Ponginae. Their name derives from the Malay and Indonesian phrase orang hutan, meaning "man of the forest". The orangutan is an official state animal of Sabah in Malaysia. Fruit makes up 65% of the orangutan diet. Fruits with sugary or fatty pulp are favored. The fruit of fig trees are also commonly eaten since it is easy to both harvest and digest. Other food items include: young leaves, shoots, seeds and bark. Insects and bird eggs are also included.

 

Normally I don't like to shoot animals with bars or fences. I always try to avoid these objects like in my previous images. But in this case I wanted to show the expression of this great Ape. Ofcourse a bit sad. But looks like she's having some deep thoughts...

 

Orang-oetans zijn een geslacht van de mensapen met lange armen en roodachtig, soms bruin, haar dat voorkomt op Borneo en Sumatra. Er zijn twee soorten: de Borneose orang-oetan op Borneo en de Sumatraanse orang-oetan op Sumatra. Tot voor kort werden ze als ondersoorten van dezelfde soort gezien. De naam Orang-oetan is afkomstig van het Maleise Orang Hutan, dat bosmens betekent. De naam wordt buiten Indonesië wel afgekort tot orang, een woord dat in Indonesië gewoon mens betekent, met het gevolg dat een Europeaan zich beledigd kan voelen als een Indonesiër hem als orang betitelt. In veel talen wordt vaak ten onrechte een 'g' toegevoegd: orang-oetang, waarschijnlijk door het rijm. Orang-oetans klimmen van alle mensapen het meest in bomen. Ze zijn erg intelligent. Het voedsel van de orang-oetan bestaat voornamelijk uit vruchten, boomschors en insecten, vooral mieren.

No real history found scouring the internet but my experience is that its harder to get into a prison than out.

 

The impromptu 2 day tour with camerashy and host to France and Belgium, with some new places, a lot of travel with minimal sleep and some goals being accomplished by getting to a certain school.

This video highlights a number of Mei Xiang's behaviors leading up to the birth of her cub on the evening of August 21, 2020. The birth is not shown but there are brief clips of Mei with her squealing cub at the very end. Only one split screen was edited to eliminate some buffering clips, otherwise split screen clips appear as they were recorded. The audio was not activated on Panda-Cam 17 for the 12:32 PM (8/21) segments.

Wish it's not spending most of its life...
