The Sacramento Zoo — which hasn’t seen an orangutan birth since 1981 — announced the exciting news on Facebook Monday. In its update, the park shared that mother and child are feeling good after the birth.
“Indah, the zoo’s 19-year-old Sumatran orangutan, gave birth to a healthy male infant,“it wrote in its Facebook post. “Both mother and infant are doing well.”

“After the birth of the infant, care staff began around-the-clock observations to be certain everything was going smoothly with the pair,” the zoo shared. “While Indah’s behavior was appropriate, the first-time mother was having difficulty nursing, and the team made the decision to intervene in order to provide the infant with supplemental care.”
