He was caught on camera having sexual intercourse with the animals.
“Some animals seemed sexually aroused
when it was time to feed them” explains Akhiroel Yahya, employee of the zoo for
14 years. “But what made us most suspicious was when we discovered Marylin, our
oldest orangutan, was pregnant.
She has never been in contact with any
other orangutans because of her aggressive nature, so it didn’t make any sense”
he acknowledges, visibly troubled by the news. Then out of curiosity and desire
to know, the zoo officials decided on what to do.
“At first, we clearly did not
comprehend what had happened,” admits the zoo’s director, Abdoel Hakim. “Marilyn
has been secluded for the past 10 years, it was a total mystery,” he
acknowledges.
“It is only when we placed several
hidden cameras that we learned the horrible truth” he admits, visibly angered
by the whole situation. However, the zoo keeper had denied everything. He
denied any wrong doing on his part.
“He said everything he had done was
consensual,” explains police Chief, Abubakar Jaar. “He said he loved each and
every one of the animals and was very sorry he had impregnated the orangutan,”
he told local reporters.
“He says he did not know orangutans
could get pregnant from humans,” he added. “Contrary to popular belief, the
orangutan species is much closer to the human species than chimpanzees.
