Female orangutans at the San Diego Zoo were observed basking in the sun after spending time with their infants and swinging through trees. Screenshots from the zoo's ape cam also showed a mother orangutan playing with her infants using props in their playfield, which contained plastic bars, ropes, and trees, as well as footage of a family of orangutans playing together.
