The cutest orangutan you'll see today: Thailand zoo welcomes baby ape - Thailand - animals - nature - Songkhla - video


Songkhla Zoo in southern Thailand displayed a newborn male orangutan for the first time on Wednesday. Songkhla Zoo had previously been successful in natural breeding of the ape, but the latest cub was the zoo's first in four years.



The baby orangutan was born to parents, Toto and Nancy, the zoo's favorite pair of orangutan. Since its birth about a month ago, zookeepers have nurtured the cub with special care.

Zoo officials will soon begin receiving name suggestions for the baby orangutan from the public. If selected, the winner will be rewarded with money and one-year free admission to the zoo.
