Orangutan Super Mom Jazz Takes Charge Of The Babies  

Baby orangutan brothers Jim and Joe crawl over to mom Jazz and Sprout Baby orangutan Joe goes straight to Jazz for comfort while Jim plays with big sister Sprout, who is happy to engage in play with him. Sprout then takes charge of both babies, Jim and Joe both attach themselves to Jazz with Joe hilariously grabbing hold of Jazz's head in the rush to get a hold of her as she walks off !
Sprout is left alone, but then joins her mom and the babies.
Dad Djimat is sitting patiently in the background. It was fascinating to watch how Jazz and Sprout fish leaves out of the moat, seemingly preferring wet leaves as a snack!
This is older footage recorded in September 2023 when Jim and Joe were 15 and 14 months respectively
They are now 2 years old
The background story of Orangutan Babies Jim and Joe
Orangutan Jazz gave birth to her baby son Jim 1 month prior to her daughter Sprout giving birth to her first baby - Joe
Unfortunately Sprout being a young first time mother showed little interest in rearing her baby, amazingly her mother and Joe's grandmother Jazz stepped in to raise the baby as her own whilst raising her own baby son - Jim, made possible because she was able to feed both infants due to already having had a baby
The Two baby orangutans - only a month apart in age have grown up with each other as brothers when in fact they are Uncle and Nephew!
These days Mother Sprout has more interest in the two babies as they are growing up and plays with them just like a big sister, with hero mom Jazz allowing her quality time with them! The babies do rum back to mom Jazz most of the time for comfort and feeding
Jim is slightly larger and has lighter fur than his nephew Joe.
Amazingly Jazz took over the responsibility in true hero grandmother style and is still caring for and feeding both babies.
We are sure that the experience and interaction with the babies will enable Sprout to be ready for motherhood next time around.
