A Sumatran birth at Furuvik, Sweden on 21 November 2020, Naong x Dunja. Their last offspring was born on 21 November 2017.

Cancel that - I've just realised that the Facebook item is a 'memory' and refers to the baby born in 2017. I don't think I can amend my earlier post.

The male offspring has been named 'Pustakawan' or 'Kawi' for short.

Pustakawan means "librarian" in Indonesian language. It is a hold to Terry Pratchett. His books are famous in our country and he himself engaged in orangutan protection in Indonesia. More than 20 years ago he visited Prague zoo, had a lecture here about orangs and he adopted a male Galapagos tortoise Eberhard, this adoption was been reneved each year by his local fanclub. When he died, Prague zoo published an obituary.
