- Keepers at Chester Zoo are concerned when an orangutan runt is underdeveloped, so they put her under anaesthetic to find out what's wrong.
The Bornean orangutan is a species of orangutan endemic to the island of Borneo. Together with the Sumatran orangutan and Tapanuli orangutan, it belongs to the only genus of great apes native to Asia.
From The Secret Life of the Zoo: This series gives viewers behind the scenes access to Chester Zoo's 21,000 animals and the people who work there. The zoo's keepers are interviewed in each episode about the various animals and incidents, whether it's orangutans escaping their enclosure or tigers getting into scraps.
Welcome to Nature Bites the OFFICIAL Nature Hub Channel. Bringing you closer to the remarkable animals that inhabit our natural world.

What a shit zoo
In case you guys don’t check comments. I wanted to give you all (the whole team from zookeepers, to filming and editing for uploading these episodes (including Sir David Attenborough). I watch these to get through my massive ptsd moments, it has also been extremely healing for me during my second knee replacement I had done a months ago. For others John Downer productions (they make the animatronics that are sent into the wild to watch and learn from animals), susan bird is another great channel, she tailers her uploads for all of us, but her calm nature and swimming freely with humpbacks, mostly super whales, dolphins and rays (she also gives great info, like not touching stingrays as friendly as they are, as their skin is like a very soft rubber, it takes forever to heal and can break the skin easily with your nails). Watching Captain Dana’s boat tour, he also uses drones and under water cams to see ocean wildlife’s daily life. EVnautilus ,nis a great channel, soothing and also gives hope to mankind doing right when they revisited places that at one point was over fished and thousand year old deep sea corals destroyed my mapping the ocean floor and trolling the sea floor for fish and you see how a few years of not fishing, how absolutely abundant the seas are and how rejuvenating they can be and quickly as well.. Not to mention the ever awesomeness of Sir David Attenborough own documentaries, 1 of my favourites is a 2 parter and it is how all life both flora and fauna started on earth, more than 3.8 BILLION YEARS AGO,❤️!
Again a great big thank you from Canada
PLEASE PROVIDE AN EXPLANATION OF TRIPPAS HEALTH ISSUES THAT CAUSED YOU TO PUT HIM DOWN AS PER THE AGED ANNOUNCEMENT ON YOUR OFFICIAL ZOO WEBSITE. WHY WAS HE NOT ABLE TO BE HAND RAISED OR RAISED IN A RESCUE IF REHABILITATION WAS NOT POSSIBLE??? WE WANT ANSWERS!!!
I’m wondering why they waited so long to do anything when there was obviously something wrong with him for years?
I’m sure you get this a lot BUT…more more more of the Orangs!! Pretty please 🙏! They bring me so much joy! 🦧♥️ glad to see that little man is feeling better!
AMEN!!
Did I read that he passed away in 2018?

Now that was a joy to spend time watching! I just viewed pt.1 & pt. 2 together.. Great content, well presented.. Perfect story! Thanks @ Nature Bites! 🐒💙💜💛💚❤
No wonder he didn't feel good enough to play. Glad there is treatment that helps
He’s dead. It didn’t work
IMO, the secret life of the zoo, is an amazing program. The zoo keepers have such an attachment to all the critters they care for. Started watching it in Denver last year but not able to get it in Toronto. Luckily I found it on Utube. Very happy. 🦋🦋🦋
I love his little pouty face when he’s not getting what he expected.
He really wanted to stay awake during the ECG
@@frijolero9086he really wanted to stay awake when they put him to sleep
It's very unfortunate that it took 2 years for the zookeeper's to take action to diagnose this little guy. It's quite obvious that they suspected something was wrong with him for quite a while before finally running the proper tests. His stunted growth should have prompted a simple blood test to look for thyroid deficiencies. It's what a pediatrician would have done for a human infant and it wouldn't have taken 2 years of observation to determine the need for such a test.
The initial lack of action likely lead to his death. As per their website they euthanized trippa and I am just broken over it. 😢😭
Yes it sounds odd that the Chester zoo website says that the baby orangutan had been "under the expert care....for a number of years" and it took them about that long to diagnose low thyroid. Also the website doesn't mention Tripa's age and date of euthanization.
@@absoleet I sent the Zoo Administration an email and they responded by restating the "expert care" mumbojumbo. I replied back by telling them they were either not comprehending my point of contention or they're being deliberately obtuse in addressing the obvious negligent treatment of that beautiful primate. Orangutans are sentient beings who deserve the same treatment and protections against medical malpractice as humans. The treatment he received does not meet any established standard of care and the primary caregivers must be held accountable for the obvious substandard care given to Trippa.
@@williamalford4248 I also confronted them on Twitter multiple times but they have ignored me. The public is owed a detailed explanation.
It's not a Human, that's why they have Vets on hand, and not Pediatricians.
I love how Tripa looks down curiously at his baby sis in the video's beginning. Cutie!
🇨🇦🙏❤️ I'm so so happy that the Drs were able to find out why this little sweethearts not developing correctly! I'm so grateful that given time and his medication he can catch up and start developing properly. He's such a darling little guy! 🙏❤️😘

Cutie!!. Hope the best for this little one💙
@Nature Bites, While its really appreciative of you to put these heartfelt and beautiful videos , but please add correct info to like time stamp when showing these real old videos . Tripa was put to sleep back in 2018 because of his health conditions. It's very misleading for viewers.
Why was he put to sleep? Did he have more then just the thyroid issues?
Wonderful thank you 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💖💖💖💖
I wonder if his lack of hair, compared to the others, was another sign of thyroid problems. Hope to see him fill out (and hair up😉) now that he is being treated.
I thought that also! I have thyroid issues and I lost a lot of hair until they got me on the right dose of meds so hopefully this little guy will start doing much better 💙💙

Could you imagine? That would be the day
Sad you don't even notice how often that does happen
I never knew that even in human children that they can fix the thyroid before the child matures. Go Tripa go. It is beautiful to see his progress, thank you
He's dead. They euthanized him. Check official zoo website for announcement. Utterly terrible and heartbreaking 😢😢😢

Oh yeaaaa, low thyroid is an easy fix! My breed, Giant Schnauzers, has a major prob with hypothyroidism. I've lived with love thyroid dogs 40 years. Meds make ALL the diff in the world.
Heartbreaking to hear that the little man has passed away in 2018. When I first saw the clip I was hoping he’d be doing a lot better by now but perhaps he’s in a better place. Rest In Peace Tripa 🙏🏼🕊

As a door nail
Sadly I believe Tripa died eventually, I was so sad to read this. He was a lovely boy but never really recovered from his issues and progressively got worse and Zookeepers had to put him to sleep. Love ya little man
I wish they would send Tripa to the moon
To know that they had to put this baby boy down really upsets me.
Let’s be honest you were never going to do anything about it
@@Frank-jk4xf what branch did you fall off ???
Ultimately, It is best that the animal is now gone and out of reach of the cruel, negligent and uncaring "zoo keepers" and "vets" that were just exploiting it for money and attention. The poor animal was obviously being denied medical care just so that these videos could be made and so that more donations could be received. Truly disgusting and disgraceful!!
He is such a sweet boy thankyou for looking out for him Chester zoo.
How do you know how he behaves? Just because you saw a 4 minute edited video, you think that’s how he ALWAYS acts ?
@@elcabo4557 I've only seen a few of your comments and I know for sure that you are a sad, ugly excuse for a human being 🤣🤣 your obviously not that clever either...a little slow perhaps ?! Considering this comment was posted months ago I am assuming that the disease or abnormal condition you have is still manifesting!
He’s dead
AWWWW!!
Gross!
I don't understand why they allowed mama to get pregnant so quickly. Baby Orangutans spend yrs with their mothers before they leave the nest. Doesn't make any sense!!
Wonder why they waited 4 years to do any tests
They were hoping he would drop dead
Precious little pumpkin. Thank you for his top notch care. He deserves the best and as I can see, he is most definitely getting it.
Don’t make fun of pumpkins!
He's dead. They euthanized him in 2018. Official but vague announcement on their zoo website. HORRIBLE 😡😢

@@t.j.e.t277 send me the link
@@t.j.e.t277 why horrible?
He has hypothyroidism?
i do like this series, but i have seen the animals die from waiting to call the vet. a wild horse was seriously hurt and nothing was done and she was dead the next day.a newborn wild horse was born and the umbilicus got infected from not putting any betadine to kill infection she became septic and died in agony! and others as well.they dont intervene when they should!!!!
They should have caught that a long time ago.
He’s bald and looks malnourished
That doesn’t happen overnight 😠
Thought so too. Don’t care for zoos at all.
He lucky hes in a zoo.... if wild the runts get left behind to die ...and while he was still trying to cling and feed off mom after she had another baby the newborn would of suffered aswell
Most orangutans his age are bald,and some orangs are just thin.
Now he’s dead and that’s what’s important
@@elcabo4557 he isn’t dead
The poor thing is four years old. Why didn’t the vets intervene sooner?
He’s lucky to get any help. If he was in the wild he would be already have been dead
They were trying to see if the mom would embrace tripa,because if they intervened it could break the relationship forever.
@@skelo9033 why interfere with nature then?
@@elcabo4557 But he *wasn't* in the wild - he was in care of zoo vets who long ago noticed his delayed development and lack of interaction with his peers. But they waited until he was 4 and pushed away by his mother after her new baby was born to do ANY investigation into why? Color me not impressed by the team at this zoo.
@@larkmacgregor3143 so if that’s important what do you plan on doing to change things? do you plan on donating a generous amount of money or volunteer to help???
I hope he is OK
Get well soon young Orangutans.
ORANGUTANS STAY WITH THEIR MOTHERS UNTIL ALMOST EIGHT YEARS. THIS LITTLE GUY SHOULD STILL BE WITH HIS MOM. MOM SHOULD NOT BE HAVING ANOTHER BABY!!!
YOU SHOULD GO THERE AND TELL THEM INSTEAD OF COMPLAINING TO STRANGERS
They should teach them how to put a condom on a banana. They'd chock on the bananas, dead orangutan problem solved.
His hair doesn’t seem to be as thick as it should be!!??
Nooooooo shit Sherlock!
They’re all so adorably cute 🥰
Until they get to about 6... then they are disgusting

Excellent comment
Tripa had been under the expert care of the zoo’s veterinary and primate teams for several years for a number of health-related problems - linked to a developmental condition he’d had since birth.Despite the close monitoring, expert consultation and care extended to him, Tripa’s condition and quality of life deteriorated and, in the interest of reducing his suffering, the very difficult decision was taken to put him to sleep.Sumatran orangutans are a critically endangered species with just under 14,000 left in the wild, pushed towards extinction due to habitat destruction for logging, the wholesale conversion of forest to palm oil plantations and hunting. The loss of Tripa is therefore devastating news to all of those who have looked after him since his birth at the zoo in October 2012. As well as being a successful part of the European endangered breeding programme for the species, Chester Zoo’s conservationists are also working in South East Asia where they are helping field workers in Sumatra to restore forest in which orangutans live.
Thank you for the information...RIP little man
Why's he so bald in many spots?
He's sick?
I want to hold him.
You gotta $$$ to play.
You’ll have to dig his dead body up first
Get well soon Tripa! Hope you can grow healthy and independent. Someday you can be that big orang with flanges!

He is dead
@@smilebbyily2445 thank God!
@@elcabo4557 jokes are supposed to
Be funny..your joke isn’t even funny considering they don’t use orangutans to make glue.
@@Cole-lb9oq have you been to Tewa?
I can definitely empathize with Tripa - I had hypothyroidism since childhood. Given that orangutans have 97% of our human DNA, I shouldn't be surprised that hypothyroidism is something they can suffer.
It's so obvious that the entire veterinarian team failed him terribly!! This makes me so incredibly angry and sad. RIH Little Tripa. May your journey across the Rainbow Bridge have been a smooth one. I would have held you tight every chance I would have had.
They did everything they could for it. How dare you accuse them of failing. We’re you there? No!! So don’t make accusations without proof
@@keithmuehsam8990 THEY MOST CERTAINLY DID NOT!! HOW DARE YOU!!!! You need to educate yourself!! Do you have a clue what his condition was????!!!! Because I do and early intervention was key to his survival. Instead they brushed it off as him being clingy to his Mom. Not even close.
I agree. I'll also never understand why they bred his mum so early in his life, when they knew this poor little fella wasn't where he should have been.
The way the cookie 🍪 crumbles….
So the animal was half the size the it should have been, was weak and frail and lethargic. So after years they FINALLY checked him out phyically, but not before his thyoid problem damaged is heart. They then try to end this video as a feel good story. It's not. It is a tale of neglect and incompetent. By the way, he still looks sick.
Trapper is Die...why they not Tell the poor Baby..he was lifelong in a prisom
Instead of these animals becoming extinct as you clearly would prefer

It was too soon to let his Mom get pregnant. He needed his Mom!!
Another expert primatologist straight from Google U
"trips" wouldn't have lasted long in the wild due to weak genes and so forth. he actually a terrible candidate for the progress of the orangutan species. there's gonna be more problems later down the line.
I agree in the wild he would have probably died even sooner. It seems that as well as being physically under developed he was also a bit slow in mental development
You watched a video and now you know all
CAN YOU PLEASE CREATE MORE MORE MORE film on orangutans, monkeys, and gorillas??? They are our closest “relative” and there are THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF FANS who eagerly wait for any videos!!! More, more, more of all they’re stories!!!
So glad for little Tripa!!! Now he looks like an active, adorable, and the cute little Buddy to his two girl cousins!!!
We have the same creator as all living things on this earth. The Smithsonian channel has a series called Jungle School about teaching orphaned Orangutans how be Orangutans after their mother has been killed by poachers and farmers. You will love it. They are free but they have more you can buy.
I cannot understand how these "zoo keepers" can perform in front of a camera and talk innocently about a problem they caused. Even as actors they would be considered garbage. They have watched this animal suffer for four years and they talk about the situation as if it were an unpredictable emergency. They use all the buzz words they just learned in school and are being allowed to play with the lives of animals that require experience of people three times their age. I feel sorry for ALL of the animals in their care but hopefully by the grace of God the animals will die peacefully and not be subjected to the torture caused by the incompetence and arrogance of these childish "zoo keepers." This is just downright disgusting and inexcusable!!
Are you saying the zoo keepers caused his thyroid problem?
What are you doing to help?
Ummm.... do you really believe that these decisions come down to the zookeepers?
The animals health is completely in the hands of veterinarians with some of the best experience in the country.
The zookeepers do not make these decisions and all of the animals health needs are overseen by the veterinarians. And overseen very closely I might add.
Although, you seem more than capable to tell the vets how to do their jobs!! 😂 😂
Orangutans and apes in general could be more prone to low thyroid/overweight/heart issues in captivity. The Indiannapolis zoo also have a baby orangutan Max who was diagnosed with low thyroid.
@@absoleet That is interesting. I think these people then have to make a decision as to whether the quality of life of these animals is adequate to justify keeping them alive. The animal in this video looks pathetic and appears to be suffering. It is not fair to keep any animal in that condition.
Maybe now with the thyroid hormone replacement therapy, he will start getting some hair growth back!!! Holy Moly! The poor little guy is practically bald! That should have been one of their FIRST clues he had a thyroid deficiency! Hair loss is a MAJOR symptom of a thyroid problem…
And because you chose to sit back and not donate or volunteer, he died
First like
One saved…but how many died today for our luxeries and greed?
And what have you done today to make a difference aside from your pathetic useless comments?
Wasn’t saved.

Smh🙄. Stop screaming
More humans are dying , so leave these stupid apes and spend your life to save humans. It's shame to see humans rushing to save ugly stupid apes, which are extremely ferocious and dangerous for humans.
No, these animals aren't ferocious. No one benefits from a species going extinct. Your fake concern for others doesn't make your illogical hatred for these animals seem justified. You are just ignorant and hateful
My sentiments exactly. It irritates me to see this disproportionate moral compass aka stupidity. ❤
