Big Boy Beni is here today because of the attentive and compassionate care he received from his dedicated caregivers. But just like our mothers, they know they’ll soon have to let Beni go when he is eventually transferred to a forested pre-release island. The time is now to see what «Beni’s Team» has to say about what it’s like to take care our beloved Beni boy.
Thank you, Dave Seibert, for donating a soda stream for the orangutans! The primate keepers made strawberry infused sparkling water for Bess, Michael, Jiwa, Daniel and Rayma to enjoy. They enjoyed this unique enrichment very much!
