Who can forget when two (twin!) baby orangutans visited the The Tonight Show to meet Johnny Carson — and not laugh at his unfunny antics. The little guy in Johnny's hands (who looked like he put his finger in a light socket before the show) was seriously unimpressed. They told him that Carson was kind of a big deal, but after Johnny looked him in the eye and laughed in his face, he was determined not to crack a smile for the rest of the show.
Ah, young love. After a pair of baby Sumatran tiger twins and a pair of baby orangutans were abandoned by their mothers in the wilds of Indonesia, they ended up playing, cuddling and lovin' on each other at the Taman Safari Zoo. They've loved and frolicked for a month now with no fights, but their love affair will not last the spring.
When Barry Bland, 38, took his 2-year-old daughter Emily to the T.I.G.E.R.S. Wildlife Education organization so he could take some pictures, little did he know she would become fast friends with Rishi, a 1-year-old orangutan. Pretty soon, Rishi and Emily were having tea, she was pushing him in a stroller, and then when they had to part, Rishi gave her a peck on the cheek.
