Orangutan Benji's Unique Persona He's Literally A "Basket Case"


via IFTTT Today another Orangutan video from Dudley Zoo. This is the interesting male Orangutan with huge flanges called Benji. He has his own little quirks. Discover the fascinating story of Benji, the remarkable Orangutan. A lone male who prefers his solitude. The zoo staff made efforts to pair him with Jazz, but unfortunately, Benji showed no interest. A distinct characteristic of Benji is his strong attachment to a red bread crate, which acts as his comforting companion. Whether he's sitting inside it or carrying it around, the crate seems to provide him with a sense of security. Whenever the crate becomes damaged, it greatly upsets Benji, but the staff promptly get it replaced. (Thank you @tesco supermarket for supplying a new crate when needed) though it takes some time for him to adjust to the new one. Interestingly, Benji has a fondness for the company of female keepers and visitors, earning him the reputation of a ladies' "man." He eagerly approaches them to satisfy his curiosity. On the flip side, Benji exhibits a dislike for bald human males, for reasons unknown. In their presence, he can become quite grumpy and agitated. Stay connected and never miss a moment!

Gorilla Zuri Her Bucket Hat And Getting Close To Baby Eyare


via IFTTT Gorilla Zuri from the Calgary Zoo in Canada has a new hat. She took the big bucket and put in on her hat moving towards the window where she sat in the bucket and had a look at the camera. When she moved she put her bucket back on her head. Gorilla Dossi looking at her. Wonder what she was thinking. Gorilla Zuri is sitting in the hammock, keeping an eye out for Baby Eyare. When baby Eyare is running past, Zuri sits up in the hammock and has a quick look. A little later Zuri still sits in the hammock and watches her play in front of her. She gently plays with Eyare's hand, then gently puts her hand on her back. Eyare didn't seem to please but she just got her play face on which makes her so adorable. Zuri is a mother herself to her daughter Yewande. After Eyare walks away I added a couple of clips of her pregnant daughter Yewande. As this was filmed in March 2023 and her baby wasn't due until May I never got to see the new baby. I do apologize for the glare in the window. Sometimes when it's busy I'm unable to cut out the glare as I'm standing too far away from the window. Don't forget to subscribe and hit that notification bell for more! Filmed in March 2023.

Cooling Down in Style Orangutans at Dudley Zoo Beat The Heat With Ice


via IFTTT Dudley Zoos where the Orangutan family enjoys cold treats. The supermum and babies interact while Djimat and Sprout play with yoghurt pots. Benji, a lone male Orangutan, breaks his ice into smaller pieces. It's a hot day at the Dudley Zoos and our beloved Orangutan family gets a cold treat. Orangutan supermum got her ice treat. The babies Jim and Joe look at her and try to grab her arm so they can have some, but she's not sharing. Sprout has her own ice and comes to have a look at Jazz, Jim and Joe before she made herself comfy on the logs. Jazz making a sucking sound😂, really enjoying that ice. Djimat prefers his without the yoghurt pot and takes it straight out. He's done that before. He plays with the ice in his mouth and just as I zoom in a little you can just see him blink as he bites on the ice. After he has a scratch, Sprout joins him. Those two are spending quite a bit of time together and Sprout is definitely the instigator. I believe Sprout is still on contraceptives. Hopefully, she will be for a while, as she's got some more learning to do from her mum. Djimat looks over at Sprout. She has put on quite a bit of weight over the last year. With everything going on it hasn't been easy for her. Djimat grabs the yoghurt pot and tries to get the rest of the liquid out of it. Sprout then grabs the yoghurt pot while it's still in Djimat's mouth and pulls it out. Djimat does amaze me, he's such a laid-back male Orangutan. When Sprout moves away he gets the yoghurt pot back. Sprout still got her chunk of ice in her mouth. On the other side, the babies are playing with the yoghurt pots. When Jazz gets up to move the babies try to hold on to her. Jim loses his pot. Benji next door the lone male Orangutan sits by his crate ( more on that in a bit) he is hitting his ice against the concrete to make smaller pieces. #SloggerVlogger #OrangutanBaby #BabyOrangutan Benji video coming on Friday! Orangutan Mother Jazz (30) from the Dudley Zoo became super mum as she's not just looking after her own baby boy Jim born (born 25th of June 2022), now she's looking after her daughter's newborn baby Joe (born 23rd July 2022) as well, as her daughter found first-time motherhood a little bit challenging. When her daughter Sprout gave birth she walked away and left the baby on the floor. Mother Jazz picked the baby up straight away. Jazz is nursing both and giving both love, care and attention. Flanged Orangutan male Djimat is the dad of both babies. Make sure to watch the two babies grow up.

Jambo started to lose his ear in November 2018, which some staff believes happened accidentally, it got ripped by his mum in a group fight. Twycross Zoo mentioned they tried to glue it back on with skin glue, but unfortunately, as time passed, he picked on it so much that he lost all of it. In October 2022 Jambo lost a toe, it's unknown how exactly this happened. They have been some fights and agitation when Samatha the female chimpanzee is on heat, which might have been the reason. In 2018 The chimpanzees got their new "Chimpanzee Eden" habitat. A 1,160sqm area with two seven-meter-high indoor spaces linked to a large outdoor site complete with substantial climbing frames and huts.

Gorilla Lope Annoys And Pushes His Younger Brother


via IFTTT *Lope's being his usual self annoying and even pushing his younger brother Shufai.* Shufai is at the Oat enrichment discs. When Lope comes to watch him. He climbs up above him and hits his chest. Which makes Shufai move down below. Lope takes his place and hits the wooden discs against the pole. He goes in after that, but a few minutes later he's back out again, pounding his chest towards his brother Shufai who sits on the other discs. Lope pulls on the rope. Shufai tries to slap him and grab his feet while Lope is holding on to his head hair. When they sit up straight again, Shufai is holding on to the rope and Lope tries to rip it off him. When that doesn't work he grabs Shufais toes, squeezes them and pulls them one more time before running off. It doesn't take too long until they start their chase. Shufai runs after his older brother. Having a bit of a slip in the grass. It cracks me up when Lope looks behind to see if he's still following, slowing down when he hasn't entirely caught up yet. The two run inside and come out again, up and down the slope. When Lope had enough, he lets Shufai know and this time he lets him know by pushing him into the wall of the hut. Lope then chases Shufai inside. Asante has a look at the boys and at Ozala behind the climbing frame. Don't forget to subscribe and hit that notification bell for more!

Soon he's off again on his own. Cheka has a quick look at where he went but is busy eating some flowers and lets him get on with it.

Discover Baby Gorilla's Playful Antics With The Greens


via IFTTT Baby Eyare from the Calgary Zoo in Canada is already pretty independent and not even one year old is already nibbling on solid food. Eyare grabbed herself some green leaves which are nearly as big as her. She has a bit of a nibble, but mostly spits it back out again and playing with them seems much more fun than eating them. You might have noticed some red on the leaves. These are mashed-up fruit leftovers and not blood. You see the little cage, it has got a jar in it and in that glass is the fruit which they have to get out with a stick and some of this transferred to the salad. Mother Gorilla Dossi is picking up her daughter and carrying her on her leg, while Gorilla Kioja is in the back having a good scratch with her leg in the air. Eyare isn't staying long with mum, she plays on the big hammock. She gets a couple more leaves to nibble on and then slips off the hammock. Not to worry, as it wasn't very high. She continues to nibble on some stalks. More next Thursday! Don't forget to subscribe and hit that notification bell for more! Filmed in March 2023.

Orangutan Super Mum Eating Spikey Thistles While Babies Play On Her Shoulder


via IFTTT Orangutan super mum is sitting in the grass munching on her spikey thistle leaves. It always amazes me how they can eat things like nettles and spikey leaves like these. You can see from her face that the spikes have some effect on her but she puts up with it because they taste good. The two energetic babies playing on her shoulder, holding onto her hair. I noticed now that Jim and Joe the two baby boys are starting to play a bit more together now. We probably see more and more rivalry between the two. They're coming up on their first birthday soon. Where did the time go? Jim is so cute when he's hanging there, getting his buttercup with his foot. The second time he tries, Jazz is trying to grab him, but he wiggles and falls into the deep grass instead. Jim starts climbing back onto Jazz's shoulder, but Jazz pulls Jim to her front again.

Watch Out For Gorilla Mothers Great Feat To Get To Her Lettuce


via IFTTT *In this video Ozala gives her all to get to the lettuce on top of the hut's roof, I have never seen her do this before* It's lunchtime and Biddy is looking out of the window to see where the food was scattered. Biddy and Silverback Oumbi are the first ones out on the left. Oumbi got himself a lettuce when he was just about to charge towards Ozala/Shufai who were coming out of the other door, but as he was grunting (inaudible to the filming), he lost his lettuce out of his mouth and had to pick them back up again. While he was doing that Ozala started chasing Shufai away down the slope. Oumbi sat down in the grass while Shufai ran to the other side. Biddy got her ball with some treats in it that they love. Ozala let her ball fall from the climbing frame and it rolled all the way towards Oumbi. He just looked at it and continued eating his lettuce. Lope is happy to just eat some grass and a dandelion. Biddy comes from the back of the hut to enjoy her treat more in the sun. It's hay which always looks like it's soaked in something. I'm not quite sure what it is, but I know they do love it. Back to Lope, he got himself a pinecone. Then watch Ozala's impressive feat to get to the lettuce up on the hut. She approaches from the left and pulls herself up, unfortunately, she can't quite reach it so she wiggles her legs to get some more leverage which worked and she manages to swipe the lettuce off the roof of the hut. We were playing with the thought that she might be pregnant, but the keepers said that she is definitely not pregnant and just likes her food. The Gorilla mother takes her sala, has a sniff and walks off with it. Meanwhile, Oumbi made Biddy move, but she managed to take most of her snack with her, while Oumbi got a little bit that was still there. Ozala is full of energy today. Running after Lope with her salad still in her hand. Lope pushed the blue ball down the slope. Asante gets some treats as well. Taking it higher up when Ozala approaches. In the last clip Oumbi, Biddy and Lope seemed to be in a hurry, running behind them and going inside. If you look at Biddy she seems like she is hooting in the Silverback direction.

Clever Gorilla Gets Water From A Tap To Put In A Huge Lid To Drink


via IFTTT Gorilla Dossi got herself a huge lid of a barrel and she makes her way to the water tap to get some water. She also has a paper bag with her. Her daughter Eyare is near the faucet, but when mum comes she quickly moves away. She was licking some food off the cardboard and probably didn't want mum to push her away again like she normally does when food is involved. Dossi puts the container under the tap and then puts her hand on the tap to make it flow. She fills some water into the lid. Even though it has got a hole in it, she gets some water in the lid. She drinks out of the lid and her daughter has a good look at what Mum is doing. Dossi gets a second helping, filling up that lid again. For some reason, she now wets the paper bag on both sides and then tosses it out of the lid. She starts drinking again, but she filled it up a bit too much and spills some. So she put the container on the floor and drinks from there. Her daughter joins her in drinking the water. When Eyare is finished she walks away opens her mouth, and shows her teeth. She did this quite often when I visited. Always when she moved away from something. Mum tips the rest of the water out and leaves, little Eyare has another lick from the lid. Filmed in March 2023.

Orangutan Sprout Gets Close To Her Son Joe


via IFTTT Jazz's daughter Sprout who is also Joe's mum sitting behind Jazz. Orangutan mother Jazz choose to stay in their old part with her family in this video. They can go freely to the new part today if they want as Benji whom they share the big space on alternate days is inside. Orangutan baby Jim is busy trying to figure out how to hold on to that firehose hammock. It's weaved so tightly that he's got trouble getting his fingers in there. Joe is playing on the right. I started to concentrate on Joe on the red bar, trying to chew on it. I only noticed after a minute that Sprout was now behind him. You can still see her lack of experience when she tries to hold on to her boy and is holding on to him. I'm just glad Orangutans are a lot more flexible than human babies. There is some sweet interaction as well as she gives Joe a little kiss or maybe tries to clean him. Nevertheless, that was it for Sprout as she left Joe to his own devices again. Jazz decides to grab the boys and go into the new part of their habitat. Don't forget to subscribe and hit that notification bell for more!

Gorilla Lope Strutting His Stuff



via IFTTT I love how gorilla Lope comes out of the door. Like he's on a mission, looking so grown up and powerful, but then making us smile, making people laugh again with his upright walk. His brother Shufai runs after him, beating his chest. Lope looks around to see how close his brother is. Oumbi, Ozala and Shufai standing on the slope. The staff is throwing some green beans over the wall, one of their favourite sack. Grandma Biddy and Lope are up the top. As I was just about to concentrate on filming Biddy, Lope suddenly comes charging past Biddy. Biddy had a quick burst of energy seemingly telling Lope off. A quick pan back. Oumbie is ready to go back inside and Shufai and Ozala are still searching for some more beans. Lope comes charging back as Biddy is still dragging a bit of wood wool with her foot around. Lope gets some green beans as well, but Ozala doesn't seem happy when he has some more and she chases after him. He goes back inside and when I catch up with them again, Schufai is chasing Lope. A little break just after Lope hit that door flap. It looked like the chase starts again, but Shufai goes the other way and Lope has a look through the window before he goes inside. Some leg flips when both Silverback Oumbi and Lope are outside again. Asante got her snack on the other side. Shufai has a quick look out of the door at his brother Lope. Later Lope beats his chest on the platform towards his brother Shufai. Shufai climbs down quickly so does Lope.

Hairless Chimp Jambo Coming outside #shorts



via IFTTT Jambo, the alpha male of the group was born at the Twycross Zoo in England. He has alopecia, a form of hair loss he had since his youth. He was born on the 9th of June 1982. His daughter Genet, a brown chimp his mother Coco (1965) are in the same habitat. Coco is the oldest animal at Twycross Zoo. Jambo's siblings from his father's side are Holly who was born on the 27th of December 1982 and Jomar was born on the 28th of December 1990 both are in the same habitat as Jambo. William his half-brother was born on the 30th of June 1982 and Jambo's first son Peter is in the next-door enclosure. Jambo started to lose his ear in November 2018, which some staff believes happened accidentally, it got ripped by his mum in a group fight. Twycross Zoo mentioned they tried to glue it back on with skin glue, but unfortunately, as time passed, he picked on it so much that he lost all of it. In October 2022 Jambo lost a toe, it's unknown how exactly this happened. They have been some fights and agitation when Samatha the female chimpanzee is on heat, which might have been the reason. In 2018 The chimpanzees got their new "Chimpanzee Eden" habitat. A 1,160sqm area with two seven-meter-high indoor spaces linked to a large outdoor site complete with substantial climbing frames and huts. #SloggerVlogger #HairlessChimpanzee #HairlessChimp Shop/Merch Links with worldwide delivery: Biggest collection of T-shirts, stickers, caps and much more rawshutterbug Redbubble @ https://rb-ambassador.pxf.io/HairlessChimp #AD #RedbubbleAmbassador Amazon USA Store https://www.amazon.com/shop/sloggervlogger #Ad #AmazonAssociate Travel, Days out and zoo hyperlapse YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/WatchAndSubTravel Don't forget to subscribe and hit that notification bell for more!

Singing Gibbons and Their Delightful Antics



via IFTTT *Today is a Lar Gibbon compilation video. These silly lesser apes are known for their enormous singing voice that carries for miles, but they also have some nifty moves up their furry sleeves.* The first clip, the jump and what a jump it is. The gibbon walk is certainly something that brings a smile to anybody's face. The way they react when they see something in the grass or even just relaxing in the sun and getting groomed just makes you smile. Don't miss a single moment—subscribe now

New Series Introducing The Calgary Gorilla Troop



via IFTTT *New series starting today from further afield than my usual visits. The Gorilla troop from the Calgary Zoo in Alberta, Canada.* Gorilla Jasiri is the Silverback of the troop. The females are: Gorilla Zuri, Gorilla Kioja, Gorilla Yewande, Gorilla Dossi and baby daughter Eyare. The new series will include all the gorillas, but mostly you'll see Mother Dossi and Baby Eyare. Baby Eyare, just under a year old, was already showing an unbelievable level of independence. She would play on her own for long stretches of time and even nibble on solid food, showing a level of self-sufficiency that was impressive to watch. Meanwhile, Baby Aarde, from the last series from Chessington Zoo, mostly stayed close to her mother and had only recently started venturing a few meters away. Seeing these two different approaches was a reminder of the unique personalities and individuality of each animal. It was clear that the two babies had their own distinct characters, even from such a young age. Silverback Jasari only came out when it was feeding time, as he preferred to stay in his little den, but there are some baby and dad moments too. Gorilla Yewande was pregnant at the time of my visit and she now had her baby on May 24th 2023. There will be footage of Kioja too. She sadly lost her 6-year-old daughter Kimani to a "rare form of pediatric liver cancer" in 2022. You easily recognise her as she's got a bald head, but still very beautiful. She seems to plug her hair. I've seen older pictures of her and at one point she was nearly totally bald. Series every Thursday at 14hrs UTC +1. Gorilla Jasiri is the Silverback of the troop. He was born on June 21st 1998 in Zoo Atlanta. His transfer record is: 21st June 1998 / 1st February.2012: Zoo Atlanta 1st.February 2012 / 18th June.2014: Dewar Wildlife Trust 18th June 2014 / 17th June.2019: Zoo Atlanta 17th June 2019 / now: Calgary Zoo Hand-reared Gorilla Zuri was born on December 31st 1996 at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.

Baby Orangutan Playing Above His Chewing Mum



via IFTTT Orangutan baby Jim is having a play above his mum Jazz, while Jazz is taking it easy in the sunshine and just happily chewing away. If you wondering where Joe is, he's tugged in on her left side and probably fell asleep while nursing. She pulls Jim to the other side when he tries to join Joe. Jim gets himself a tasty dandelion. Later Jazz has some grass, Jim in her arm and Joe climbing over Jazz to get to the front. You see Jazz's extra nipple again quite clearly. If you haven't seen the video where I first mentioned this you can watch it here https://youtu.be/WXqz6wq9bUc Both babies want to try some. Jazz is having none of it and when Jim tries to grab some a little later on he pulls his hand away. Jim does manage to get some in the end. Joe is there as well on her left side. In the end, she walks off with the babies.

When her daughter Sprout gave birth she walked away and left the baby on the floor. Mother Jazz picked the baby up straight away. Jazz is nursing both and giving both love, care and attention. Flanged Orangutan male Djimat is the dad of both babies. Make sure to watch the two babies grow up.

Furious Gorilla Granny Screams Running After Shufai



via IFTTT *Gorilla Biddy screams as she chases after Gorilla Shufai who hit her with both arms.* Lope is strutting along the hut when suddenly he hears the gorilla screams coming from behind the door. Gorilla female Ozala appeared and she seemed to shove her mother Biddy, but the real issue seemed to be with Shufai her son. Ozala gets out of the way, and Shufai comes out after the two and straight away starts hitting his grandma. Biddy is no push over though she furiously screams at her grandson and makes him slide down the slope backwards. I think Shufai was shocked by how his grandmother reacted. Never underestimate the grey gorilla lady! Gorilla rascal Lope kept himself surprisingly out of the way, he quickly climbed up on the roof of the hut when it all kicked off. He still standing there looking down. Biddy and Shufai climb back up the slope. Ozala still standing there on alert. Biddy walks away but keeps her eye on her grandson. Shufai is still in a strop, pulling the door flap and then displaying again in front of his grandmother. Both sit down. Biddy still watching Shufai. Shufai gets back up again towards his mum to sniff her bum. He moves away from Ozala towards the ball. He plays with it for a few seconds and then throws it up in the air. Poor Biddy ducks, luckily the ball touches down far away from her. All is quiet when suddenly Ozala comes running down the slope and Shufai is starting to hit Biddy again. She is trying to fend him off. The three move towards the door with Biddy wanting to go back inside, but there is another hurdle. Oumbi the Silverback is behind the flap somewhere. Ozala and her son standing there in their displaying pose. Watch Biddy as she gives her grandson the evil eye. Lope, Ozala's oldest son is still quite happy to stay out of that one. Looking at Ozala's thighs, they are quite massive when she stands there like that. Is like Oumbi is saying you're not coming in until you kissed and made up. Biddy seems to finally get in, but then Shufai pushes her and she comes and looks out off the other side. Not only does her grandson have a go at her but now Oumbi seems to grunt at her as well so she comes back out again. Ozala went around to the other door. Oumbi has a quick look and then Biddy goes in. Shufai pushes the flap with force and then walks off. Lope still watching from above. Surprised he's not sitting there with his popcorn, knowing him lol. Shufai comes back, has a look behind the flap and goes inside. Ozala goes into the door at the far end. Unfortunately, I couldn't film inside as it was too busy there. Biddy did come back out and got some of the leftover red cabbage. A little later in the evening, a nice ending as Biddy and Ozala are resting side by side inside. A gorilla's lifespan is normally between 35 and 40 years, but the oldest gorilla female in the world is in Berlin. She's called Fatou and celebrated her 66th birthday this year (2023)! I was lucky enough to see and film a few seconds of her in 2019. https://youtu.be/aDD6UecuY5E Don't forget to subscribe and hit that notification bell for more! #SloggerVlogger #Gorillas #SloggerVloggerGorillas My merch shop links with worldwide delivery: *NEW designs are now available* Biggest collection of T-shirts, stickers, apparel, homeware and much more rawshutterbug Redbubble https://rb-ambassador.pxf.io/Gorillas #AD #RedbubbleAmbassador Customizable T-shirts, stickers, apparel, homeware and much more Gorillas rawshutterbug Zazzle: https://www.zazzle.com/collections/gorilla_gallery-119832843969795462?rf=238978496872225031 Amazon USA Store https://www.amazon.com/shop/sloggervlogger #Ad #AmazonAssociate Amazon other countries through my website @ https://msvrvisual.weebly.com/merch.html rawshutterbug photo4me: Quality wall art @ https://www.photo4me.com/collections/show/0478a22d-b100-4271-ab8d-ad80c1a0510f Travel, Days out and zoo hyper lapse YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/WatchAndSubTravel

Gorilla Baby Aarde Seems To Have A Stiff Finger



via IFTTT *Today is the last video from Chessington Zoo in the UK. Showing Gorilla Aarde. Gorilla baby Aaarde (M) was born on April 24th 2022.* Poor little fellow definitely has a stiff finger. He had it when I first started filming the family, so I'm not sure how this happened. I do hope it's something that heals and won't stay like Kera's finger from Bristol Zoo. He's holding on to Mum's back while she's foraging for her food. A few more close-ups of her baby. Introduction and more info about this family in this video: https://youtu.be/5L7KPbIZ9jU Next Thursday there will be a new series starting with a gorilla troop I never filmed before. As hinted before, this troop was the furthest away from all the gorilla troops I have ever filmed. They have a baby gorilla as well who is about the same age as Aarde, but a lot more independent already. Next Thursday at 2pm UTC+1.
