Safari Celebration: After 11 years, the Orange Utan puppy was born on safari.
The birth took place two weeks ago, when a 12-year-old Orange Utan box gave birth to a sweet puppy, but for long days the puppy could not be expected because her mother hid her in her arms.
Only now does she allow herself to move her slightly away from her body and the orange wonder begins to unfold.
The happy father is none other than 11-year-old Mercy, the last orange-born monkey born on safari.
His elderly mother Rochele passed away when he was only 7 years old, when he was still close to her.
While he was getting used to life without his mother it was decided to bring two females to the safari also to help pity the crisis that befell him but mainly to produce a sequel to the breeding nucleus in which the safari takes part and multiply the endangered orangutans.

The two young females Sato and Tana came from a zoo in Germany and on the red shoulders of the two young women was placed the great responsibility for the continuation of the dynasty.
In those days, there was great excitement in the air and the expectation that Mushon, the father of the family, would continue with them the long line of the safari.
In the early days he was observed courting them enthusiastically while the pity of his young son showed signs of shyness.
After Moshon passed away at the respectable age of 50, Mercy began to approach the females, he showed signs of maturity and after three years of close contact with Tana - it happened.
Great excitement.

Great excitement gripped the monkey ward caregivers as the tiny puppy who was still attached to the umbilical cord was observed between the blankets in the yard as his mother Tana guarded, nursed and warmed him.
The caregivers made sure that everything went well and even now they are supervising, checking and continuing to monitor.
This is Tana's first litter, so caregivers are doing everything to help and facilitate her.
This month the monkeys' renovated yard was inaugurated with enrichment facilities, new challenging climbing facilities, colorful paintings and lots of new vegetation that they enjoy.
During the renovations, Tana began to climb the vegetation, moving through it to a tree near the yard and not responding to the caregivers' courtship to get off it carefully.
Out of fear for Tana and the little puppy, the vets decided to take advantage of the fire department's crane and lower it back into the yard and then also got the impression that they were in excellent condition.
Danger of extinction.

There is great importance to such an addition to the breeding nucleus in the safari.
The Orange Otten monkeys on safari are ambassadors to their brethren in the wild, which are in serious danger of extinction.
The main factor threatening them is the disappearance of their habitats, forests, and following the abduction of puppies that are unfortunately sold as pets and usually do not survive.
It is estimated that due to the current rate of habitat destruction, by 2030 another 4,000 orangutan monkeys are expected to disappear from the world.
