Orangutan

Welcoming with Open (and Long) Arms

You might notice a shaggy new orange face along Treetops Way. We’re honored to welcome Labu, a 14-year-old male Sumatran orangutan, to the San Diego Zoo! With the support of allies like you, we’re saving, protecting, and caring for critically endangered orangutans and other wildlife through our Asia Conservation Hub. You can connect with him on your next visit as he gets to know the other members of the group, enjoys leafy snacks, and climbs and explores high above the ground.
