Visitors at Twycross Zoo in England on Friday caught a first glimpse of the latest arrival - a baby Bornean orangutan.

The cute primate was born on Thursday to mother Maliku and father Batu.

Orangutans are considered to be critically endangered in the wild due to poaching, habitat destruction, and the illegal pet trade.

Another new born baby for Twycross zoo! The rare and critically endangered Bornean orangutan baby was born on 27th of March 2017 to mother Maliku and dad Batu at the Twycross Zoo, Atherstone, Warwickshire England. Only 4 days old today!
Maliku, the third time mum, is showing off her little one by bringing it outside and into the sun. She's collecting the wood shavings to make a bed for both of them. Lying there in the sunshine, she's caressing the babys hand. Later, the dad, Batu is having a quick look.
