Looks so prehistoric

[@theapedcrusader6964]

He's just like me

[@TheEathos]

Apes honestly seem much more human than ”beastial” imo. It’s so strange that we keep them captive as display for amusement in some places. They’re just a very different form of ”human”, with still so many similarities to us.

[@hoon_sol]

The word orangutan literally means "forest-person": *«The name "orangutan" (also written orang-utan, orang utan, orangutang, and ourang-outang) is derived from the Malay words orang, meaning "person", and hutan, meaning "forest".»*

[@fantasybabydino]

i watched a video where an orangutan was being taught a certain language where certain symbols translated into words, like an apple was a rectangle, circle in the middle and diagonal lines connecting to the circle, it was awesome.

[@antiHUMANDesigns]

@@hoon_sol Yeah, I've heard it means "old man of the forest".

[@hoon_sol]

@@antiHUMANDesigns: As my comment said very explicitly, it just means "person of the forest"; there's nothing about the term meaning "old" at all.

[@antiHUMANDesigns]

@@hoon_sol OK, it's just what I've heard.

[@AdventureExploreDiscover]

Imagine living in a town in the US that knows nothing about Orangutans and their existence then seeing this and trying to explain it… kind of like Bigfoot.

[@paolocarl.8205]

yeah they're also massive. A male like this one could weigh up to 90 kilos

[@TheMrPeteChannel]

​@@paolocarl.8205that's nearly 200 pounds in freedom units.

[@werkindrey9450]

Imagine seeing that outside your window

[@yumallah]

I'd just think it was some local drunk, tbh.

[@DATguyb0ss]

[@alexrodriguez1724]

This was once a man but he ascended to the monke

[@AmritBankar]

You can see orangutans walking upright all day in Baltimore City they squeege windshields

[@SwedishSalmonbox]

What if the gigantopithecus spicies walked upright. Just 3 m tall hairy dudes.
