Baby Orangutan Jarang Huge Update News !! Worth The Wait

Filmed in February 2024 Baby Jarang has put weight on since my last visit and seems stronger and more alert. Jingga's methods are still unconventional and she still shows inexperience but she is caring for baby and feeding him well.
The newborn baby is a critically endangered bornean orangutan born to first time Orangutan mother Jingga
this video was recorded in February 2024
KZbin sensation Jingga has had social media fame before when a video featuring her went viral back in 2015 - viral video - monkey sees a magic trick
The video was filmed at her in her previous home Barcelona Zoo in Spain
Jingga move to her new home Blackpool Zoo in 2017 to join her new Blackpool Orangutan family as part of the European Endangered Species Programme (EEP)
14 year old Jingga was born in Barcelona in 2009 to mother Jawi and Father Karl
Now Jingga is settled at Blackpool zoo and has given birth for the first time to the tiny baby boy orangutan named Jarang
The father of the newborn baby orangutan is 13 year old Kawan who has recently moved to Blackpool Zoo in 2022 from Apenheul Zoo in the Netherlands and was an instant hit with the resident female orangutans Cherie Summer and Jingga
He came to the zoo as part of the European Endangered Species program after his much loved predecessor Ramon was moved to a new group in Germany where he has just become a new father himself
Kawan was specially selected by experts to join the female group at Blackpool Zoo and has settled into his new role as alpha male orangutan very well
We have recently added Blackpool Zoo to our list of zoos that we will be frequently visiting to film the apes, so watch out for more footage of this fantastic zoo. Blackpool has Gorillas and Bornean Orangutans and we were really impressed with both areas.
There are currently 5 Bornean Orangutans in one family group at Blackpool Zoo consisting of adult females Cherie Summer and Jingga
Alpha Male Kawan and the new male baby orangutan Jarang

[@shellos8]

Glad the baby is doing better. You can tell she loves her baby.

[@ApeTracker1]

He does seem to be doing better, mother does still carry him around in an odd way but she seems a little less clumsy with him. 🥰

[@cassandralewis9105]

Something still look off with the little boy.

[@mariadaconceicaodiasvieira4873]

Very weak baby, compared with the others.

[@svinwonderland]

Am very happy to see these two again! It'll be very interesting watching Jarang's development. They are both so precious. ❤

[@ApeTracker1]

It was great to see them both doing a little better and making some progress. 🥰

[@tavibaby]

I do see some improvement in the interaction, which makes me happy in a way. You can tell he wants to be held. So entirely vulnerable and adorable. ❤❤

[@ApeTracker1]

He has a long way to go but yes I was happy to see the improvement. I was really deflated after my last visit in December. Hopefully this progress continues. 🥰

[@suzmaca650]

I admit I didn’t think he’d make it this far…wouldn’t be her fault. Baby looks strong and healthy.

[@ApeTracker1]

He is stronger than my last visit, mother is still a little clumsy with him but from what I saw she was handling him better. Thanks so much for watching. 🥰

[@plantmama7442]

Very active healthy baby boy 🥰 She loves him so much ❤️

[@ApeTracker1]

He is a lot more active than on my last visit, it was good to see their interactions 👍

[@nellieb9434]

Thank you for the update. He does look a lil chubbier. That's great. He's falling backward and has the strength to pull himself up to sit. Im very impressed. When will he be one? He is behind on the milestones, but i think when he gets more mobile, he will make up the time. Im not going to give up on Jinga and Jarang. We dont like how things have been handled by the zoo, also the way Jinga carries him and her having no experience. (Im meaning no disrespect. I value everyones opinions and feelings, and by no means am i trying to tell ppl what to do. Or hurt anyone, or get them upset) I think maybe it's time for everyone to accept this is the way it is going to stay. A lot of us have reached out to the zoo, and other people we know of that could have helped, and they were not permitted to get involved. Which makes me have all different sorts of feelings about it. But what can I do now? Im going to stay positive and put my energy into watching all the videos and other videos i can find of them and hope that once he figures out how to sit up all the way, then next thing should be crawling and walking. Then he can get bigger and stronger. Thank you so much for visiting them and updating us. Your the best and im so grateful you visited. Thank you again!

[@ApeTracker1]

Yes, I agree I have been watching Chester Zoo's baby Orangutan and Jarang is behind in development although like humans all animals develop at a different rate and the mother Sarikei at Chester Zoo is very experienced at raising babies. I will say that during my visit there was a Zoo Keeper attending to them all day with food, cleaning and communicating with mother. Thanks for watching and for the great comment. 🥰

[@nellieb9434]

I'm glad you said something about Sarikei lil baby. I was thinking he was behind but I could not remember when he was born. So I chalked it up to being recently born. When was Jarang born again? At Chester Sarikei lil boy date of birth? I wonder when the will name him. Do the keepers know why he might be behind? Thank you again.

[@Axalotal]

I fully agree with you. It was mind-boggling how the zoo refused any outside help or kept the worrying public informed. Jingga is not the only mother to carry her baby weirdly. From the experts I talked with at the time, it was because Jarrang would not grip his mother properly. At no time was he in danger of being transported by foot. It is unconventional and looks terrifying at first and even second glance. All of his fans hope you are right about one day just surprising all of us and blowing past his missed milestones. They are both adorable and we all just want them to live their best life. Even with all the problems it is clear that they are.

[@ApeTracker1]

Jarang was born 14th June 2023 Sarikei has a baby girl born 31st August 2023 There is no news on a name for her yet but will post it on the Ape Tracker community page when it is confirmed

[@ApeTracker1]

I haven't spoken to keepers recently about his progress but if I am thinking for what it is worth that it is due to his mother not teaching him the early skills and not pushing him to explore by climbing. I also think that he may have possibly been born prematurely. I cannot confirm this though. 🥰

[@JJawsyW]

He still doesn't move his shoulders all that great.

[@vjc2270]

Wow❣️🤩 Look at our little man go❣️ He’s so alert, has a nice round belly, is sitting up by himself and looks like he’s ready to crawl. Mama seems to be quite enchanted by her little boy. ❤ I think that little by little, Jarang is teaching Jingga how to be a Mummy. ❤❤ I always had faith that they’d work it out together and I still do. He’s definitely a bit wobbly, but hopefully that will improve as his muscles get stronger. I wonder if he was born a little prematurely? That might explain why his development has been a bit slow. No doubts at all though that he’s well-loved. ❤ Thank you SO much Ape Tracker for this fantastic update. 👏👏🙏🙏😃

[@ApeTracker1]

I wondered if he was premature, when the baby was born at Chester, two months later than Jarang they were about the same size. I really want to see him climbing, that will be a huge milestone that the chester baby has already crossed, we have a video coming out of it. Thanks as always for watching and supporting the channel. 🥰

[@ronstille7924]

Thank goodness I'm so happy she's getting better at being a mom and he looks healthy and happy. I'm also upset with the caretakers not helping her

[@maryegarrett1950]

To see him moving around with his own strength and the two of them having up close interactions together is wonderful.❤

[@ApeTracker1]

Yes, as the day went on I could see that he had made some progress, I am really excited to watch this little guy grow over the years. Thanks as always Mary 🥰

[@JonasWhite]

What a little precious guy. He’s an inspiration in the face of doubt

[@garo306]

This is a wonderful sight. So happy to see them doing well! It looked touch and go for a while.

[@ApeTracker1]

Yes, after my visit in December 2023 I was quite deflated by the progress, which was probably just a bad day but it was nice to him doing ok. 🥰

[@PamPreston78]

He’s alert and trying to be mobile. Maybe it will just take time and him watching others.

[@ApeTracker1]

I think it will take him some time yet, he has made progress though and has certainly put weight on. 🥰

[@gloribyrd9259]

Poor little fellow. He wants so badly too cling and climp onto mom.

[@miloteagan4273]

still feel something is missing. like she doesn't know quite what to do with him. hope he thrives. he's very sweet .

[@Sassyglbeauty]

She loves that baby so much! She’s done the best job she knows how and it’s obviously worked! ❤

[@ForestGirlTeresa]

Thank you SO much, AT, for bringing us this update! Jarang still looks uncoordinated, but he’s sitting up, and looking at his mum. I love how Jingga holds him and kisses him. I am so pleased. I hope you can bring us future updates.💜🦧

[@TaraK-h1b]

Love this!! Thank you for the update!! It was nice to see mama and baby doing well. I still think Jarang has a disability of some sort. He's underdeveloped and struggles with controlling his movements. I think Jinga is doing the best she can under the circumstances and it was nice to see them thriving. Baby and mama seem happy. I am rooting for these 2! Loved the update... Thank you AT!

[@TaraK-h1b]

@NEWz206 I disagree with you. She might be inexperienced and it shows through some of her actions but Jarang is 8 months old. His stiff and awkward body movements is not because mama is inexperienced. It's very obvious that he's not developing normally... Blaming it all on the mother because she's inexperienced is ludicrous. Babies will continue to hit milestones even if the upbringing isn't ideal... Jarang is not hitting those milestones. He can't even sit up on his own...

[@ApeTracker1]

I agree, I do think she is doing her best and is also learning a little along the way. When they are together they look really well bonded. 🥰

[@cheriegautreaux4018]

You are absolutely correct, the baby does have what looks to be Multiple Sclerosis

[@JennyMiller-rt4ue]

Ah… but she wasn’t an orphan. (Her mum’s named in the description above)@@StrongCoreSociety

[@JennyMiller-rt4ue]

He does push up to straight arms in this video. That’s new :)@@TaraK-h1b

[@Eric-1983]

I'm so glad to see this!

[@ApeTracker1]

Thanks so much for watching 🥰

[@АлевтинаЗуева-п1я]

Джаранг жив и выглядит значительно лучше , наверное получает какое - дополнительное питание . Конечно по развитию далеко отстал от сверстников, ему же сейчас больше чем полгода , а он и ручками не цепляет и неточно ходить , он ползать не может , мне показалось он и перевернуться сам не может , жаль его очень . Но выглядит намного сильнее, сам садится молодец. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@ApeTracker1]

Большое спасибо, я думаю, что смотрители теперь дают ему дополнительное питание, но, как вы говорите, он все еще присматривает за малышом из Честерского зоопарка. Я надеюсь увидеть его немного лазающим через пару месяцев. 🥰

[@Axalotal]

It is womdersul seeing this little guy all chubby and bright eyed. He looks so much better. It is becoming cleaery there is a serious developmental issue. While he seems stronger, he is still incrediably weak and still has poor motor control. At 6 month he can't sit up on his own, when he should be running and starting to climb. Mom also looks a lot healthier. Jingga clearly loves Jarrang and is doing an amazing job in a very tough situation. I would like to know what happened to all the people who wetr critical of mommy Jingga. This little guy is so adorable and a strong fight in him. It is wonderful knowing the two are doing well. ❤

[@abbyd323]

I'm not sure those people were critical but just concerned for this baby. It's wonderful to see him doing better but he's definitely way behind on his development.

[@missnarni]

I haven't seen anyone critisizing Jingga, but the zoo, for not intervening, offering help to Jingga to act in a better way, or informing publicly what is their view of the situation. Mom is inexperienced and it is not her fault by any means, and people understand it very well.

[@Axalotal]

@@missnarni A few months ago there were a lot of negative comments toward Jingga. I got a lot of less-than-pleasant replies for defending her and saying there was something wrong with Jarrang. It was evident after his first few days there were developmental issues. He is now six or seven months old and moving like a one-week-old. Even then, there are signs that something is not right.

[@SHAWNEESKYWALKER]

​@@missnarni If they're going to have animals in captivity then it is up to them to take the best care they possibly can.

[@Cleo-q3o]

THE PRAYERS AND THE LORD GOD ARE WORKING!!!!!¡✝️

[@garrettthum6238]

Oh my gosh! I'm so glad to see Jarang moving kinda normal. Looking around. Still should be more developed by now but didn't get the tlc and proper mother bonding needed for that. I'm so happy he's alive. I finally saw him feeding from mom and getting some love! ❤😢😊❤thank goodness! Phew! 😅😅

[@annasiergiejewicz5552]

Od początku ma odpowiednią więź. Gdyby nie był zaopiekowany wiedzielibyśmy go wychudzonego, zapłakanego i brudnego w odchodach. Jest opużniony. Sam nie utrzymalby sie na jej brzuchu. Łatwiej mu obejmować nogę.

[@patricialee4611]

I just wanted to tickle that little baby belly ❤. Mom loves her baby and is learning how to be a mom orangutan. ❤

[@ApeTracker1]

Thanks for watching, really glad you enjoyed the video, enjoy the rest of your week and keep well.

[@reenarichmond9395]

This is such a cute little baby, and, mom is a great mama❤❤ 5:16

[@wildramenluchadorproductio3338]

The way the baby keeps going on it's back and then pulling himself back up is adorable and harlious

[@ApeTracker1]

Mother seems to be giving him more loving attention than in previous videos, hopefully this will continue. Thanks so much for watching. 🥰

[@marykelly2409]

​​​@@ApeTracker1Yes, I have🖐🏼😊❤️ I'm so happy to see Baby Jarang🐒🍼❤️ and Mother Jingga 2-11-24

[@ApeTracker1]

Thanks Mary 🥰

[@bees5461]

I'm so glad to see them again. Jarang does look better, seems like he had the strength in his torso to pull himself up a couple of times when he laid back. He keeps his little fists clenched so tightly, I notice he's been doing that for a long time. He's a cute little guy. I bet he will catch up with his peers at some point, you are right that babies of all kinds develop at a different rate of speed. Popo was starting to climb a little bit around this age, I wonder when Jarang will get to that point. It seems like once they start to climb the development tends to take off at that point.

[@ApeTracker1]

I hope you are right, I to feel that he just needs to get to that point where he can eat food on his own and start wandering and climbing. 🥰

[@JennyMiller-rt4ue]

I agree. Younger babies lift themselves up to their mum’s mouths and chewed food from her. So cute. I hope for that :) @@ApeTracker1

[@gia8070]

Thank you so much for the update!! I was worried when I saw your last post. What a relief. :). I wish I could visit but am here in NYC.

[@ZombieQueen819]

Awwwwwww, look how big he is now, and you are so right it was very much worth the weight on the update !! Just look at him now ❤❤❤❤❤

[@ApeTracker1]

Thanks so much ZQ, it was really great to see some progress and it was also great to see mother keeping him close and helping him to sit up. She was behaving with a much greater sense of responsibility. 🥰

[@troutfisher7182]

I had faith in Jingga all along. She's creative and original. You can see she adores Jarang with all her heart. I've seen other videos of young orangutan babies riding on feet too. For all we know she may have ridden on her own mother's foot, or saw someone else doing it.

[@ApeTracker1]

I agree, I think she does know that Jarang is her responsibility and is trying to what is best for him. Hopefully over the coming weeks she will try and teach him some important skills. 🥰

[@emmas1082]

I was worried about him, but he definitely looks like he is getting enough to eat and is calm and healthy🥰❤️

[@JennyMiller-rt4ue]

I think he’s way behind other baby orangutans. I like seeing all his limbs moving instead of tense and frozen in time. He’s trying to pull himself up on her which is really good (way younger in other babies, but just slow, I guess. She seems calmer and that gives him a chance to try out some moves :)

[@juliafields5153]

Thank you for this encouraging new post! I hope the next time you visit J&J that you will have an opportunity to film Jarang's rear limbs. In past clips I always noticed that when being carried on Jingga's foot, he could wrap his legs around her ankle but didn't seem to be able to flex his feet enough to cling to her as he did with his hands. Have wondered if he has some disability there and, if so, whether he will be able to recover from or compensate for it as he grows. In any event, it is a great relief to see him looking brighter and healthier. I know I speak for many J&J fans in expressing the hope you will keep us posted with new clips. Again, thank you for sharing your observations of these fascinating orangutans.

[@milliemills7263]

I love this video. Thank you so much x

[@ApeTracker1]

Glad you enjoyed it! 🥰

[@hollisblinn7910]

It looks like everything is coming along quite nicely. As a new mom, she just needed time to warm up to the task.

[@annasiergiejewicz5552]

Maly wygląda na odżywionego i zaopiekowanego. Jednak mam dziwne wrazenie ze cierpi na jakąś przypadłość, być może genetyczną która powoduje opóźnienie w rozwoju. Intelektualnym i fizycznym. Na jednym z filmow widzialam ze ma albo przepuklinę albo nie zstąpily mu jądra do moszny. Śledze i jestem ciekawa jak rozwinie się sytuacja.

[@LanaXov]

[@Liz_678]

He is getting stronger❤. Momma loves her baby. She attends to him which is good.

[@mlublansky]

She absolutely loves her baby so nice to see keep the love going momma

[@VinayakPande53]

Worth the wait? Really? Jarang still looks malnourished and underdeveloped for his age.

[@ApeTracker1]

Thanks so much for watching. 🥰

[@annetdragavon1442]

Jingga's jerky movements and claw-like grasping could be, in humans, symptoms of Cerebral Palsy and/or developmental delay. He seems feisty and determined which bodes well for him as he develops. He's adorable and well-loved by Mom, and I'm sure the zoo vets are on any issues with his development.

[@Any-Okra]

Is the staff observing to make sure she is feeding him enough ???

[@lm9991]

Wow! He is a lot better!! So alert. So wonderful to see. Maybe he will catch up to his milestones! Regardless, he is improving. I wonder if the zoo shows, or showed her videos of mothers with their babies - how they lift them by their arms and develop their legs. She really loves him and that is great. Thank you for recording and showering us these precious beings. 💗

You are so welcome, thanks so much for watching. 🥰

[@redclover1027]

Hi strength and muscle coordination are nowhere near where they should be because mama had nobody to show her what to do. Only by the grace of God is this little guy even still alive!

[@annasiergiejewicz5552]

Jingga urodziła się w Barcelonie w 2009. Jej mama nazywa się Jawi. Razem z Jingga jest inna dorosła samica z potomstwem w podobnym wieku jak Jarang. Wolno żyjące samice wychowują dzieci samotnie. Dorosle córki nie widzą jak ich mama zajmuje się dzieckiem. Nie muszą sie tego uczyć bo to zasługa hormonów i instynktu. Uczą się od matki tylko jak matka sie nimi zajmuje czyli gdzieś 8-10 lat. Nie jest ważne jak przenosi dziecko. Na plecach, na brzuchu, na nodze, czy na ręce. Małe orangutany boją sie opuszczać matke. Jingga nie zostawiłaby go leżącego gdyby komunikował że się boi. Poza tym moim zdaniem miał przepukline pachwinową. U człowieka to najczęstsza z wad rozwojowych i czasem sama mija. Moze jednak powodować ból podczas napinania mięśni i jak siedział na stopie mamy to widocznie mniej marudził. Mnie martwi opóźnienie w rozwoju. Nie należy jednak winić matki, pracowników ZOO ani opiekuna. Poprostu ślepy los, okoliczności ciążowe i porodowe, mutacje genowe. W naturze nie miałby szansy a Zoo pomoże mu żyć.

[@transportwatch5154]

Great update video ❤

[@linnaellis212]

He is adorable!

[@Sewtired]

Wish they would say if they are bringing in human occupational and physiotherapists to improve the play area to make it easier for Jarang to develop and get around. Feel sad when he is left flat on his back. He needs a safe place to sit and see the world that is safe and orangutans proof.

[@ApeTracker1]

Thanks for watching and commenting. 🥰

[@AnitaKoorn-qp8hu]

Little Love! So precious 😍😍😍

[@elisabethfriedl777]

He is very, very small for his 8 month. There is more action, but she don't cuddle him and give him warmth from her body. She is very disabled as mother, but ist is better than no mother, like in Indonesia with the palmplantations. I hope that Jarang grew up to a healthy orangutan. From when is the movie. 4 days ago on you tube, but this movie can be from last summer. I always read on the website from the zoo, there is no visitors allowed for Jinga and her offspring to give them rest. I am looking forward to see an update movie on the website from the zoo.

[@carderlaffey9507]

sad to watch

[@MegUSN52]

I am so glad you updated us. I am so, very thankful for that! I still think there might be a medical issue with Jarang. This could cause him to be delayed by his age group for orangutans. It could also explain why the zoo hasn't stepped in to teach Jingga to be a mother, as she may be doing her best if something is medically wrong with Jarang. Orangutans can get the same mental and physical illnesses, conditions, and deformities as humans. We will know for sure whether it's just inexperienced mothering from Jingga or whether Jarang has something medically wrong with him in a few more months.

[@JennyMiller-rt4ue]

But why wouldn’t the zoo say something. There’s something wrong with the baby but we pretend everything is fine…seems so Victorian…I don’t think I believe that

[@annasiergiejewicz5552]

Każda płodna samica ma pierwszy poród. To co potrzebne do bycia matką otrzymała od swojej mamy Jawi. Wychowywała ją kilkanaście lat. Jako dorosła ma wśród narzędzi hormony, instynkt i informacje od dziecka ( kiedy jest głodne, coś boli, czegoś sie boi). Noszenie na stopie, kiedy Jarang sobie na niej siedzi i nie musi napinać brzucha i uciskać przepuklinę pachwinową jest najlepszym sposobem. Ten sposob noszenia wybrała bo mniej marudzil.

[@marksayers2740]

So nice to see these two again! They both look good, and momma is trying really hard to get this mother thing down. I give her credit for being a loving mother, it could be worse. Baby could have had to be raised by care takers? Not bad mouthing care takers, but they need each other.

[@alinae75]

Love this update! This video reminds me of a child playing eith a doll. Jinga's merhods are unusual for sn orangutan, but the " tummy time" is definitely mimicking human behavior. Glad to see the baby is doing better!!!

[@debbieharrison8424]

So thrilled to see the little one moving around and seems to be aware of what’s going on around him. He’s getting stronger. Mom is interacting with him better. Maybe and hopefully he’ll be fine just slower in his development.

[@troyannbladsacker1811]

​@ApeTracker1 Thank you for this video. Jarang is so beautiful and Jinnga seems to be doing the best she can as she was an orphan and had no mother to learn from. Jarang is stronger but does look delayed developmentally as compared to other babies his age. I do believe in the power of prayer and have prayed daily for Jingga and Jarang. I know many are praying as well. When my son was a baby, he could not roll over or crawl. I was concerned but he skipped those milestones and eventually sat up and later stood. Every baby is different, whether human or animal. I am rooting for these two and look forward to more encouraging videos. Thank you again.

Is this the baby ppl were all writing about, being concerned, because mom was an orphan and had no motherly skills? Baby was believed by commenter's that he was slow or underdeveloped? She was dragging him on her foot all the time.

[@ApeTracker1]

Yes, the mother is really young and inexperienced. She does carry him on her foot a lot. Thanks so much for watching. 🥰

[@annasiergiejewicz5552]

​@@ApeTracker1Matce niczego nie brakuje i nie jest sierotą. Jej mama nazywa sie Jawi. Matki noszą dzieci zgodnie z potrzebą dziecka. Na brzuchu sie nie utrzymał. Na plecy tak ale nie noworodka.

She doesn’t look like she knows how to mother. The baby is obviously wanting to suckle, but I don’t think the mom knows how to nurse her baby. This little one would probably be better off being cared for by the carers until he’s well and strong enough to rejoin the troop. This is sad.

[@Kiberawomensselfhelp]

Are you guys still with that ridiculous notion?

[@shawna6683]

For whatever reason she doesn’t feel comfortable with maternity at all. I think the only reason the little guy is still hanging on is because he manages to nurse while she’s asleep. I ❤ this orangutan baby.

Thanks for watching, hopefully he will make good progress this year.

So hard to watch. He can’t get as close to her as he wants to be and then, he can’t get away be cause she won’t let go of his leg :(

[@rebeccaroblee591]

That mother is not experienced. Poor baby needs better care yikes😔

[@carderlaffey9507]

the keepers act like they aren't seeing abuse, WTH ?

[@jacquelineaviles4662]

I did not see these gorillas before today, to me it seems that the baby is a bit underweight, he/she is hungry. Now I am not sure when it becomes okay to just lay down the baby in the hay, crying while mom goes off to get food for herself. I wonder where is the zoo while it seems baby is not getting enough food. 😥

[@counsellortroy]

I wonder if he’s feeding from her enough

[@eveiwicki6675]

Is he over-vaccinated by any chance?

[@lauriebuxton1]

Can she breast-feed him? I’m not sure if she was at her mother. This is my first time watching.
