I like to visit the Orangs at my local zoo. Orangs and humans are the only primates that like to make eye contact. Gorillas, bonobos, chimps, and monkeys feel threatened by eye contact and avoid it. Orangutans also like to watch women putting makeup on their faces.
I had a group 0f Lemurs follow me along their enclosure at a zoo once...They would follow as far as They could go and when I turned back, they came back with me...Staring in my eyes the whole time...
Thanks for that! I love orangs even more now that I know how truly sensitive these “non human persons” are.
