Update on baby Budi's recovery: eight

18th February 2015

The medical team looking after rescued orangutan Budi are using daily physiotherapy sessions to strengthen the muscles needed for climbing.

This new video shows little Budi bearing weight on his legs and walking for the first time. He is clasping the hands of vet Christine as she guides him across the room to his hammock.

It is amazing to see him moving like this and free of pain!
