Sumatran/Bornean Orangutans playing.

A common sight in Zoos up until the 1970's era, a 'mixed' pair of Bornean and Sumatran Orangutans together. Notice contrast in coat colour between Silvestre(Sumatran above) and his Bornean companion(is it Jin?) Appreciate Monkeyworld are not breeding them but holding them in their mixed juvenile group. Hopefully Silvestre will go elsewhere in due course as he's an 'EEP Orangutan.' He's of particular interest to me being the grandson of the old Bristol female 'Anne' and her second partner 'Adam.'
 
Yes, he looks like Jin. They look as though they're having fun :) They were born within weeks of each other in 2009 so could be moving on next year.
