A cheeky orangutan hugged a tourist at a Thai zoo.

Footage shows the ape with its arms around the holidaymaker's shoulders before kissing her on the face and hand in Bangkok, Thailand, on August 28. It also cupped the woman's breasts in a series of other posts revered as funny by the onlookers.

Some Thai zoos train their orangutans which are highly-intelligent mammals to perform certain behaviours such as kissing tourists to entertain visitors and generate revenue.

However, animal rights groups have complained about apes being exploited at tourist attractions. They claim they are abused and kept in poor conditions.
