A brand new orangutan child on the Denver Zoo may have you cooing “ooh ooh, ahh ahh” similar to your fellow primates.

Eirina, a Sumatran orangutan who drank her Denver caretaker’s favourite being pregnant tea for morning illness aid, birthed a wholesome child on Sunday, the Denver Zoo introduced in a information launch.

The zoo believes the infant is feminine, and her title has but to be decided.

Pictures of the mother-daughter-duo present Eirina cradling the teeny orangutan to her chest and cuddling.

The brand new mother and child do have entry to their indoor habitat, that means zoo visitors may get a glimpse into their bonding. However the animals are also in a position to go behind the scenes to be collectively someplace extra personal.

The new child is Eirina’s first child and is a “momentous event” for the zoo and the worldwide conservation neighborhood, zoo officers mentioned in a information launch, since Sumatran orangutans are listed as critically endangered by the Worldwide Union for Conservation of Nature. The primate’s “quickly declining wild inhabitants” is because of habitat loss, unlawful looking and black-market pet commerce, the zoo mentioned.

Eirina got here to the Denver Zoo from Germany’s Dortmund Zoo in 2016 and likes hanging out with the zoo’s feminine orangutans, Hesty and Cerah.

Within the coming weeks, Denver Zoo will carry out a DNA take a look at to be taught whether or not the infant’s father is 30-year-old Berani or 15-year-old Jaya.

Orangutans within the wild have developed a breeding technique to discourage infanticide wherein the females breed with a number of males so no person is aware of who the daddy is, mentioned Denver Zoo animal care specialist and Eirina caretaker Cindy Cossaboon. This fashion, male orangutans are much less inclined to harm the infant as a result of it could possibly be their very own little one.
