An adorable orangutan named Pongo celebrates his first birthday at Zoo Atlanta, Georgia, America. Born 10th January 2013, the infant Sumatran orangutan was the first child of mum Blaze. Pongo was born by Caesarean section and was raised by a team of zoo keepers, volunteers and veterinarians, while his mum recovered. First-time mother Blaze initially had to learn to develop maternal skills following her son's birth by Caesarean section last January.
