Orangutan

Even Animals Need To Diet Sometimes

Even Animals Need To Diet Sometimes


So cute, yet slightly sad.
At 225 pounds, Oshine is one fat big orangutan. About twice the size of a normal orangutan.
Turns out Oshine had been living in captivity with humans as their pet for most of her life in South Africa. And her family liked to keep her happy – with food!
But after her family turned her over to England’s Monkey World, it was time to get her on a diet.
And now the healthy meals consist of lots of fruit and veggies, a bit of lean protein, and no sweets or processed foods.
Check out the clip above to watch Oshine’s battle to lose the weight and learn how to become part of an orangutan family.
