To: @eugeniaskelley5194 - Ha, ha! They do indeed. it is thought now that, due to the variation in size between the males, that those with the larger cheekpads are more virile and that this in turn inhibits the growth of the pads in those who are less so and live in close proximity.
Bless these two beautiful creatures and bless the Centre for giving them a happy life.❤
This gentleman, I guess his name is Christopher. Well he is such a beautiful male orangutan, just gorgeous
Orangs are just so cool. We could learn many, many things from them if we would just open our eyes
Christopher ❤️
Happy birthday to Christopher!
From my understanding the female orangutans find the "cheekpadders" attractive.

Love the constant uploads lately
Thanks - we are trying our best to keep posting about the great apes!
Christopher 💗💗💗
It would still be awesome if you could try the orangutan reflection I loved the chimpanzee one!
We will see what we can do. Thanks!
Bigfoot is real and it’s called a orangutan
I was thinking the same thing.
Are they related?
Looks like little pebbles wears the pants in the relationship
