## Caption

"This baby #Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abelii) plays around in a trees during training at forest school. Every afternoon the keepers took the orangutans out of their cages and trained them how to live in nature. Most would only last for a few hours and then they cried to be picked up by their keepers. It takes about 4-5 years of training before the babies are ready to be released to the wild." - uletifan | November 12, 2016 | #PhotographerTakeover
