We love Baby Animals:
As of now, mama Luna is recuperating from her surgery in comfort at her Busch Gardens Tampa Bays habitat. Once she’s back on her feet and her little munchkin is ready to explore the world, they’ll reunite for some quality bonding time, under the watchful eyes of the parks expert animal care team.
I have to say that whenever I think of little baby animals like orangutans, it’s impossible for me not to smile. These guys are the third-largest apes on the planet and the kings of the treetops! However, unfortunately, they face endangerment. As cool as these guys are, there aren’t many of them left in the wild.
Don’t worry! Busch Gardens Tampa Bay is taking action. They’re involved in the Association of Zoos and Aquariums Species Survival Plan. They’re dedicated to protecting endangered species such as Bornean orangutans. It’s not just about ensuring their safety, but it’s also about educating people like us on how we can help out too.
