ADORABLE BABY ORANGUTAN PLAYS WITH MUM
TUGGING at his exhausted mum's ears, a beautiful baby orangutan refuses to settle for a nap as he begins a game of peek-a-boo. Smiling back at her restless baby, the sleepy mum scoops him onto her back and takes him for a walk. The affectionate display was captured by 51-year-old photographer Lessy Sebastian at Taman Safari park in Ciawi, West Java, Indonesia. Lessy, of Jakarta, Indonesia, says: "I love photographing orangutans because of all their different human-like expressions.
