An orangutan uses her blanket to make a hammock to sleep in at night

I guess the term “dumb monkey” does not apply here. I want to thank Buck for sending this to me.

    Now that is one smart critter. I wonder how it knew to tie a knot. Did it just do trial and error, did it watch someone tie a knot, did someone teach it to tie a knot, did another cost teach it to toe a knot?

    C’mon ladies!!! Why ain’t you telling us guys it’s cos she is a female????????????. that’s my reasoning here I think it’s some form of nesting, it’s in the top corner in the safest part of the cage from her POV and she looks like it doesn’t bother her that much being in there, so, she should have no reason to fear the bottom ,but “orangutans are tree dwelling primates” I hear you say but, I have seen orangutans on the floor resting in the zoo. Just a thought ????
