Incredible Baby Orangutan Feeding Time!

Awesome close up footage of the adorable baby orangutan Rufus at Blackpool Zoo
feeding from mother summer
The inspiration for his name came when the patients and staff of Calea Homecare, which supports children affected by an acute and chronic medical condition that requires Home Parenteral Nutrition (HPN), enjoyed a recent visit to the zoo. The zoo named him after their orangutan mascot Rufus.
In this video Summer brings baby Rufus up close to the window as she lovingly shows him off ! Wow he is just so adorable !
It is obvious that she loves him unconditionally !
1st time mom - Summer gave birth to a beautiful baby boy on Sunday 28th April 2024
In this video Summer treats us to more tiny glimpses of her precious newborn, she keeps adjusting baby's position, holding him close to her so he can relax and feed.
Huge congratulations to Blackpool Zoo and the team a brand new future playmate for little Jarang!
Ape Tracker has captured these first glimpses of the critically endangered Bornean orangutan baby

Video recorded June 2024
21 year old, Summer seemed to be coping really well with her new-born baby and first impressions were that she is a wonderful doting mom and the baby was feeding well during the visit. Summer was the last baby born at Blackpool Zoo before the arrival of baby Jarang 21 years later
Summer and her baby were sharing the same enclosure as Jingga and Jarang and the 2 moms were cohabiting well together
Kawan the father of the 2 baby boys was very interested in his new family and spent a lot of time watching them from the enclosure he is sharing with Summer's older sister Cherie.
Blackpool Zoo's Orangutan family are part of the European Endangered Species Programme (EEP)
The father of the new born baby orangutan 14 year old Kawan moved to Blackpool Zoo in 2022 from Apenheul Zoo in the Netherlands and was an instant hit with the resident female orangutans Cherie Summer and Jingga
He came to the zoo as part of the European Endangered Species program after his much loved predecessor Ramon was moved to a new group in Germany where he has just become a new father himself
Kawan was specially selected by experts to join the female group at Blackpool Zoo and has settled into his new role as alpha male orangutan very well
There are currently 6 Bornean Orangutans in one family group at Blackpool Zoo consisting of adult females Cherie Summer and Jingga , Alpha Male Kawan , baby Jarang and the new male baby orangutan
