    I hate to be the one to deliver this heartbreaking news. But Subis' baby only lived for a few days after the filming of this video. But Subis' sister Emma who did her very best to take care of her nephew in the limited time she had with him. Emma gave birth to a baby girl! Who came into the world very healthy and continues to thrive with her mum and Auntie Subis!

      Thank You for the update. It took a great amount of understanding for her sister to respond in that way. What were her sisters motivation ? We won't ever know. But if she would have acted as most feel animals do, considering her sisters health both mom and son could have passed quickly. A huge look at what is going on in the minds and the emotional life of the Orangutans.

    Really-- a pregnant mom adopting her sisters baby upon finding it is going to be compared to the odds of winning a lottery? Dog and cat moms who are pregnant or have recently given birth will often adopt even babies cross-species. So a pregnant orangutan adopting another's baby orangutan from the same family is the least surprising thing ever-- probably fairly common in the wild.

      I highly doubt that in the wild, female orangutans commonly asks their sisters to look after their newborn baby, while they are in the hospital or that a full term pregnant orangutan would agree to look after her sister's baby, knowing that she, herself, could be giving birth at any moment. Being in the wild, where they have to forage for and compete for food is totally different than being in a zoo and having all the food they want handed to them, along with any medical treatment they need. It lowers the amount of stress they would usually have and along with the extra time that they have from not having to look for food, frees them up to be more social and build stronger bonds. Since, in the wild, adult females don't live in such close proximity to one another and spend very minimal time together, if one did get sick and the infection was bad enough that she couldn't care for her baby, the baby would most likely die. I read an update, that said that the baby didn't live too long after filming so maybe Subis knew that the baby was sick. Sometimes, they will abandon a sick baby in the wild, so the mother can try again sooner.

    In the wild, orangutans don't give birth to babies like humans. They raise ONE baby for almost 8 years. I learned that Subis has a toddler. I am not surprised her second baby has died and Subis got a complicated pregnancy because I believe it is unnatural that this happened to her. Maybe the vets of this zoo should learn from the sanctuaries in Malaysia and Indonesia who know more about how orangutans behave.

    • @whatevergoesforme5129
      @whatevergoesforme5129 3 года назад +1

      Emma wouldn't be able to take care of Subi's baby either because she would have her own baby. In one of the orangutan sanctuaries, an orangutan gave birth to twins but she abandoned one of them because it is unnatural for this species to take care of one baby for several years. It is just not done. Poor baby. It was not meant to be because it is an unnatural phenomenon.

    I know I am late to the party, but I am not judging Chester Zoo, well, maybe a little. How long did it take them to go back and look on cameras? Also, they had an orangutan that was pregnant and gave birth and they never knew it was pregnant. I am just wondering if they are doing EVERYTHING possible to care for these animals properly. I know mistakes happen, but this sounds like two too many in the past few years.

      I’ve watched a lot of their videos and the Chester zoo is definitely not the best zoo out there. In some of their videos they say completely inaccurate statements (ie they claim cheetahs are big cats). They also don’t do a great job at insuring the animals safety when introducing them, and they don’t seem to properly quarantine animals.

    Animals have been known to abandoned their young for all kinds of reasons. It's possible that Zubis didn't feel right after birth ( because she still had a
    retained uterus and infection) that she gave her baby to her closest sibling.

      It’s pretty awful. The first video from them I came across was about the surprise pregnancy (as in no clue until it was born) from a mom who still had a 2 or 3 year old. It broke my heart because I knew what was going to happen to the toddler. Other zoos avoid this by putting the animals on birth control. This is a must because even when females aren’t seeking a mate because they know it’s not time considering that the males will often give her no choice. I’ve seen moms with tiny infants in their arms being forced to copulate so it’s not possible they aren’t aware of these very common pitfalls of captivity. If they’re truly that ignorant that’s as much of a problem as just being lazy and irresponsible which would be the only other explanation. The worst part was the attitude of the staff. They expressed minimal regret and minimal concern for the newly abandoned little one. It was just like “oh well. She’ll just learn to be her own little orangutan sooner.” Willfully ignoring the emotional damage this would do and never thinking about subsequent issues like her need for attention leading to an early teen pregnancy, trouble being a mother herself, etc. I don’t know much about how they’re set up but it seems like the high rate of pregnancy has led them to seeing these babies as somewhat disposable and that’s horrible .
