Tripa

Orang exhibit beside exit from Monsoon Forest, Chester, 7th June 2018
Tripa is the little male Sumatran orang whose development was causing concern. He was diagnosed with a thyroid problem and is now receiving medication. Having seen him twice recently, I think he looks much better: I can't tell if he is growing more quickly, but he seems stronger, more active and more independent and I think that the condition of his coat has improved. He was playing with this puzzle feeder and using it to scoop water out of the pool.
 
It's good to hear that he's improving. He always looked very sorry for himself.
