Fully agree with you there. The vets said it's smooth appearance indicate it's probably benign so hopefully it is.
While no longer of reproductive age, one would hope Binjai still has many years ahead of her. Australasia currently holds the second oldest captive Sumatran tiger in the world.

Kiani Marking a Milestone | Zoos Victoria
Melbourne Zoo’s oldest female orang-utan turned 39 today.
Kiani was famous from the day she was born, as one of the twins born to mother Olga.
Twin orang-utans are very rare: in 1978 Kiani and her twin brother Bono were only the 9th known set of twin orang-utans, and of those nine sets only five had survived.
