Incredibly intelligent orangutan asks visitor to share gummy snacks

Please watch: "Killer Whales In The WILD - TOP 28 Orca Encounters"
• Killer Whales In The W... -~-
Taylor and her sisters are at the orangutan exhibit at the Louisville Zoo in Louisville, Kentucky. One of the orangutans, named Amber, keeps pointing at Taylor's bag while she tries to figure out what the orangutan wants. She holds her purse closer to the window and unzips it and starts taking some of the items out. The orangutan peers inside the bag while continuing to point. Finally, Taylor pulls out a bag of fruit snacks and the orangutan looks satisfied. The orangutan points at the gummy and points at the chain link fence to communicate to Taylor to pass the snack through the fence.

That's pretty true of all the great apes. There is a great deal of cross over between our gestures and theirs. Like the classic "hold out your hand to ask for something" gesture. I've seen it in chimps and orangutans both, and even in some monkeys. But chimpanzees especially have a very complex pseudo-language of gestures. It's pretty cool to watch. They also, incidentally, make little spears and kill bush babies with them (not all; tool use among chimps is passed down via demonstration and imitation, so local populations have their own tool making and using techniques).

Also , they get to watch all the Strange Specimens of homosapiens we all are and study our captivity in Human Society such as it is. Would be nice if human beings could learn to take care of their own friends and families and fellow creatures we all are in all our different and same groupings. The orangutans probably feel we are more endangered than they are . If reincarnation is true and required of us. I hope I could come back as an Orangutan living in a Humane protected Sanctuary.

When I see this it breaks my heart to see them confined. They belong in the wild living a free life.

Yes where tigers routinely rip them to shreds...but they would at least be wild and free and you would be jumping with joy because of that, no?

[@ryaniverson3555]

That is absolutely incredible, but so sad for Orangutan at the same time 😭 !! I dont like zoos or animals in cages !!

[@DilbertWhitehead]

I agree but many of these animals are nearly extinct in the wild and their habitats are being taken away. Often they spend time in a zoo before being reintroduced into the wild or into a sanctuary. Also provided they have enough space they are very well looked after in captivity and can live a much longer life. Swings and roundabouts

[@TB-vb1st]

@@DilbertWhitehead I agree. I think it's time to re-evaluate the "zoos are prisons and jails for animals" thinking. Yes, many zoos are inadequate and terrible conditions for the poor animals. But a well planned out enclosure for endangered and threatened animals from the wild is a far, far more humane option than them being poached and their habitat destroyed.

[@preston74]

Most were born in a zoo and unlikely able to be introduced into the wild. For what it's worth, the Louisville Zoo, like many others, work closely with wildlife conservation organizations. 🐯

[@gurvmlk]

@@TB-vb1st I think the problem is that on the surface, zoos are essentially prisons for human amusement. And a lot of people don't consider the positives that can come with it, because they compare that captivity to human prisons.

[@dominicverdin5724]

It’s absolutely beautiful and amazing to see these animals at their finest and showing their incredible resilience, determination and their ability to communicate with us through their natural understanding of basic hand gestures. Their DNA is remarkably similar to ours and yet we have them caged for our amusement. I love animals and I’m at fault as well enjoying a day at the zoo but, these animals whom they closely resemble our own DNA shouldn’t have to be treated like entertainment. I truly feel sorry for their freedom being taken away. 😢

[@_justinblizzle]

Not all animals are caged for our “amusement” some are so bcuz they’re either hunted in the wild or their natural habitats are being destroyed. Some of these places act as sanctuaries for these creatures who otherwise, sadly, would be endangered

[@KrazzeeKane]

@King of Everything not all are, but the majority absolutely are caged just for our amusement. And I will always despise any non-conservation, for profit zoos, which is what the vast majority of zoos are. Animals don't deserve to be caged and gawked at for no reason. In the case of conservation there is a genuinely good reason they are captive, but don't act like that is the majority of zoos, or even the situation for most zoo animals. We both know damn well that the majority of animals shouldn't be there, and are there simply for profit, not for the animals wellbeing, or the species.

[@_justinblizzle]

@@KrazzeeKane I don’t know that… idk the inner workings of zoos. It’s been yrs since I’ve been to one. I’m sure there are many that are open for that purpose thou but can both things not be true about them?

[@user-ik3is1hh9y]

The orangutan is the kind of customer all restaurants wish they had. We know we pull up to the drive thru and you have someone who has eaten here 100s of times and still can't make up their minds lol. Orangutan is precise . I bet he could beat the claw machine and get prizes every time. I keep telling my coworkers and friends that I believe there is a parallel universe where animals and humans run the world together .

It's probably less likely that it knew the people had gummies specifically, and more that it was familiar with the function of a purse.
