The zoo hopes to have a baby bornean in around 2008. I was told That Sibu was coming back by a zoo employee. Emma and Subis aren't pregnant yet.
Tuan is still in quarantine in the old house. I know so much about the orangs at Chester because I've been behind the scenes, and I've talked to the orang keepers. |

MonkeyWorld's 'Tuan' came from Taiwan. Chester's 'Tuan' was born in Europe. Chessington had a male 'Tuan' also but a long time ago now. |

Sumatran versus Bornean.
28-10-2007
On another thread(london Zooworld) the difference in activity levels between the two orangutan species (or subspecies?) came up.
I've just been reading a Philadelphia Zoo magazine dated 1931. At that time they had both Sumatran and Bornean Orangutans. Even then they recognised the marked differences between them... I quote- " These huge apes(sumatrans) differ very decidely from any of the Borneo species. They are much thinner of face and body... These animals are as lively as chimpanzees, while the Borneo species are very sluggish " I couldn't have put it better myself.

wow, couldn't they have waited until the new facility was built? That ape house is quite literally the pits.
Do you know what happened Dudley's Male? |
