Sir David Attenborough on the Orangutan
It makes me wonder why we don’t have more large-scale facilities designed to study and possibly facilitate this kind of behavior.

Orangutan Spear Hunter
This is just hella-cool!
An Orangutan has been seen attempting to spear fish with a pole in Borneo on the island of Kaja. This is the first time an orangutan has been seen using a tool to hunt.
This individual had seen locals fishing with spears on the Gohong River.
Although the method required too much skill for him to master, he was later able to improvise by using the pole to catch fish already trapped in the locals’ fishing lines.
