Tidy Orangutan Mother Puts Toys Away
The Twycross Zoo is having an enrichment day for the animals by throwing lots of colorful balls and some boxes into the enclosure. The <a href="https://rumble.com/v3gzsj-curious-orangutan-interacts-with-burn-victim.html" target="_blank">orangutan</a> mom with her newborn baby in her arms decides it looks all a bit messy and, in classic mom fashion, she begins to tidy up after her offspring. She starts cleaning up by putting all the balls back into the box. Still with her newborn in her arms, she then carries the boxes with the balls in her mouth all the way up to the top of her climbing frame. She only drops one red ball! What a champ!
Just how cute is this video? And we can all relate to the way mom takes care of the mess her baby made! It's just adorable! It's yet another proof that motherhood is the same with all the species out there, and an example that moms always have our backs - you won't find a better playmate or best friend out there, and this little baby surely knows this very well!
Now for some background info: orangutans are among the most intelligent primates; they use a variety of sophisticated tools and construct elaborate sleeping nests each night from branches and foliage. The apes have been extensively studied for their learning abilities. There may even be distinctive cultures within populations. Field studies of the apes were pioneered by primatologist Birutė Galdikas. All three orangutan species are considered to be critically endangered. Human activities have caused severe declines in populations and ranges. Threats to wild orangutan populations include poaching, habitat destruction, and the illegal pet trade. Several conservation and rehabilitation organisations are dedicated to the survival of orangutans in the wild. (source: Wikipedia)

White lioness shocked by male lion's advance
It seems that even the animal kingdom cannot escape unwanted advances by males! In this hilarious clip, a funny moment at the zoo is captured on camera as a gorgeous white lioness brushes against a sleeping male. When he wakes up and puts his paw around her in a loving gesture, only to have her jump back in surprise. The other female lioness then comes over to investigate what all the fuss is about! Talk about hilarious! This is one memorable clip that you will surely not want to miss!
Hey, you cannot blame the male lion for trying, right? Sure the female lioness was startled at first but maybe if the male lion gave it another shot, he could find his soul mate! If she ends up rejecting him again, well there is plenty of other fish in the sea or in this case lions in the wild! Hopefully this male lion does not feel too discouraged after this event.
Aside from the fact that these lions are hilarious, aren't they just adorable as well? You almost just want to pick one up and take it home with you, but as well all know, that would be a bad idea. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/Best-Sellers-Toys-Games-Stuffed-Animals-Plush/zgbs/toys-and-games/166461011?&_encoding=UTF8&tag=rumble07-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=8a66729758228e3760a9f2c55549f506&camp=1789&creative=9325">Animal plush's</a> could always be purchased if you ever wanted to have the next best thing!

Armadillo - Who's The Daddy!
These are the yellow armadillo also known as the six-banded armadillo (Euphractus sexcinctus) from the Bristol Zoo in England.
These two are enjoying a quick mating session.
They do make me laugh as well, as I keep thinking of the chocolate bar advert with Harry Enfield : "smooth on the inside crunchy on the outside, ARMADILLOS!!"

Unusual friendship between orangutan father and daughter
There's nothing like the bond between a father and his daughter. Well for humans at least. As they grow up, daddy's little girl slowly develops into the woman that she was destined to be. A wave of pride washes over the father once he realizes that she isn't the little girl she used to be anymore, and that she is ready to take on the world all on her own. Is it the same for orangutans?
Normally you would think Orangutan males are solitary, but not this one. Father and daughter Molly are quite inseparable. The young orangutan is always playing and annoying her dad by pulling his hair or swinging into him. You would think dad just puts up with his mischievous daughter, but they do spent a lot of time together!
For all you dads out there, doesn't this just make you want to spend some time with your little girl? Let us know in the comments! Be sure to stop by https://rumble.com/ for more awesome videos like this one, and feel free to upload any of your own videos.
Check out this unreal bond between father and daughter!

Gibbon father's heartwarming playtime with daughter
No matter what they do, the gibbons always make the visitors at this zoo smile. Dad seems to be in a playful mood and starts to wrestle with his daughter, Meo. Too cute!
White-cheeked gibbons differ from the great apes by being monogamous for life, with the female taking the majority of the parental care. Young gibbons have not been observed to play regularly, possibly due to the small social groups, but this dad has really taken to care for his daughter, so much so that he is making sure that she has the proper childhood!
There’s a declining trend with the population of gibbons in the wild, accounting over 80% in the last 45 years, which classifies them as endangered by the IUCN. Due to deforestation and poaching, their numbers are seriously declining in their native Laos, Vietnam and Southern China.

Orangutan youngster just keeps on rollin'
Although orangutans are gentle and sit for hours gazing, this particular little munchkin likes having
fun and won't stop! This precious orangutan named Sprout is living in the Dudley Zoo in England
and she knows how to make the best use of her free time.
Watch as she playfully tumbles and rolls all around her enclosure with such energy that she doesn't

Then, she decides that it would be a great idea if she put a piece of cardboard on her head to soften
the contact with the ground while rolling around. Such a clever girl!

The fascinating hairless chimpanzees
Check out this footage of Mongo and Jambo, a father and son duo who suffer from alopecia, which is the general medical term for hair loss. Sadly Mongo passed away last year (2016) at age 22. He was undergoing a routine health check for his enlarged neck gland at the Twycross Zoo, but failed to come around from the anesthetic. Jambo is still very much the boss since he is the alpha male in the group of chimpanzees.

Gibbons Tell Intrusive Rat He's Not Welcome In The Enclosure
What do you do when you see a rat? Do you grab your skirt and jump on the highest point inside your house, screaming at the top of your lungs for someone to come and rid you of your misery? Or do you grab your broom/shovel/other cold weapon of choice and go after the sneaking little bugger, letting him know that he shall not pass?
These gibbons definitely went the courageous way when they one very rude and intrusive <a href="https://rumble.com/v344va-ridiculous-plan-to-remove-a-rat-from-a-house-actually-works.html" target="_blank">rat</a> in their enclosure at the Dudley ZOO in England. The lar gibbons went absolutely bananas when they saw the rodent casually nibbling on something in the grass. One of them was catching some sunshine, while the others were poking through the grass, but when the rat started moving, everyone went ballista on the rodent. One of the monkey did what every cartoon character would do in its situation - it took to the ropes to get the hell out of there!
“Hilarious lar gibbons are getting all panicky about the rat in their enclosure,” is written in the description of the original video. “Penny, the baby is trying to shoo the rat away with its long arms when his mom, Meo, comes to help and they both run the rat out of the enclosure.”
While the babies ran away, the mom took on a protective posture, as any mom would and darted after the rat to scare it away. Another <a href="https://rumble.com/v44v93-gibbon-hugging-cat-to-keep-warm.html" target="_blank">gibbon</a> joined forces, ultimately rushing the uninvited guest out.
