Orangutans aren't monkeys and otters aren't felines. Quite a few people obviously need a crash course in Zoology 101, lol!
-
Love this. A lot of good feelings. One thing though is that Orangutans are not monkeys, they are considered great apes
-
Hoping the zoo keeper who figured this out got a raise! Love it! ♥️ “You cannot share your life with a dog or a cat and not know perfectly well that animals have personalities and minds and feelings”. -Jane Goodall
-
Love this heartwarming story. Give this zookeeper a raise and a bonus!
-
that idea to combine the enclosures was not just a bonus for the orangutans, those otters got a nice big expansion so they are probably even happier too, especially considering their new friends
-
They're apes, not monkeys. So glad that the orangutans are happy now. I love the orangutans, they are so smart too.
-
These beautiful creatures deserve so much better than what humans have given. I could watch them all day long and never get bored. They are absolutely magical!
-
We are still far from knowning how much smart and sensitive animals really are.

Orangutans are not monkeys, they are Great Apes. They do not have paws, they have hands. They are very complex, similar to us. I am glad that they finally have other company, I can imagine how lonely it would have been for them. Thank you for the vid.

As the son of a university biology professor, I cringed every time he said 'monkey'. To miss-quote Foresy Gump 'I may not be a smart man, but I know what apes are'.
-
This is what humankind should be focused to : being worldwide gardeners and foresters. Carring about plants life and animals wellness. The reward is so much better than what we are working for. Thank you this video brightened my day !
-
I really needed this joyful story today! What a reward this must be for one very concerned zookeeper, who opened up their world! I hope it opens many eyes and hearts. THANK YOU for sharing this with the world.

Sorry but your information is incorrect…. Those otters were there long before the pandemic and has nothing to do with loneliness. Pairi Daiza is a very animal friendly zoo where they have a lot of space and distraction. The zoo is not even open all year around just to protect the animals from too much stress. They were never bored…. Let alone dying from loneliness. This zoo invests a lot into the welfare for the animals.
-
Putting the Orangatans together with the otters was genius! Also putting other species together is a great idea. Animals are smarter than we give them credit for.
-
I can't help but feel very sorry for captured animals. I'm glad that these two groups have given each other some company.
-
We need more people like Mathew. Thank-you for showing these amazing souls such care and devotion, the Arangutans were obviously suffering through being lonely and now look so well as they play with their Otter friends. X

You repeatedly refer to orangutans as "monkeys." They are not monkeys, they are apes. There's a difference.

Baby Orangutan: "Can we get a cat?" Adult Orangutan: "ask your father" Baby Orangutan: "PUPPIES!!!"

This is so adorable. Personalities everywhere. Love that this worked so well. Sometimes you just need a friend💜

Love & friendship comes in all forms!! Bless that zookeeper!!
