Looking at the shape Beni was in when he was rescued it’s no wonder he loves his food. I know his diet is for his long term health but knowing myself I would be the big softy giving him treats on the sly. Thank goodness for the staff and their resolve to keep him healthy no matter what he is good hands. Thank you for your dedication to him and all the others!!

Evading a problem is not solving it.

[@kristinekalapos1066]

True, but I can't believe they just let her run off and get REWARDED for it by getting all of that extra food! If they act like it's just funny and cute, she'll never stop and in the end it will hurt her because she won't be in class learning the skills she'll need to survive. I'm also surprised a problem hasn't arisen of the other orangutans in the class trying to copy her.

[@Likexner]

She didnt solve the problem of being bullied. She only solved the problem of not having food at that moment. The bullies will do the same thing again.
