via IFTTT It always amazes me how primates can handle stinging nettles without being stung. Gorillas seem to squeeze them first before eating. Baby Orangutan Joe just freely plays with them. Orangutan baby Joe sits in the grass, chewing on a buttercup flower. He crawls towards Jazz and Jim and steals Jim's stick he had in his hand. He then plays with the stinging nettle without any ill effect. Handling it and putting it in his mouth. At one point you just see Jazz's hand pulling little Joe closer by his head. In the next clip, you'll see Sprout approaching (a bit of fast-forwarding there) and the dad of Jim and Joe in the far back. Sprout has a look at what the three are doing and then sits next to them. Jazz is looking through the nettles and a quick cute look at the camera from Jim. #OrangutanBabies #DudleyOrangutans Remember to subscribe and click the notification bell for additional content!
