The baby, who was named Rima, died at the beginning of April.
1:0 Sumatran Orang-utan born on the 24th of May at Tierpark Hagenbeck, to 'Toba' who is aged 36. The sire has not been confirmed, and is between the 2 males of 'Tuan' and 'Batak'. This is the first Orangutan to have been born at Hagenbeck in 15 years.
Krefeld Zoo have also unveiled their plans to bring Orangutans back to the zoo, following the tragic events of New Year's Day.

The baby is male and has been named 'Sinar'.
Are they at 2,1,1 or at 2,2,1 plus hybrid? Has Tiba Tiba died?
They are at 2:2:1 plus the hybrid, 'Tiba' died a while ago.
Zoo Ústí nad Labem has announced that 0:2 Bornean Orangutans, 'Ňuňinka' and 'Cantik', will be leaving to move to Auckland Zoo in the coming months. Ústí has also stated they intend to build a new Bornean Orangutan exhibit and have been promised 1:1 Bornean Orangutan from Zoo Madrid ('Sungay') and Ouwehands Dierenpark ('Daya'). The move will leave Ústí without any Bornean Orang-utans, but they will still hold the elderly hybrid male ('Ferda').

Interesting. It was thought at one time that Auckland would aim to go into Sumatrans, I believe, but this must have changed. Their new exhibit looks very good.

Nope, they are going through the process of reintroducing her to 'Michelle', so she will hopefully stay at Novosibirsk if the reintroduction is successful.
He has been named Batu. A combination of Batak and Tuan.
Pairi Daiza has announced that Sumatran Orang-utan 'Sari' is pregnant. She is due at the end of this year.
