Meet Weila (pronounced WEY-lah). Born on June 21, 2025, we initially hand-reared Weila and then placed her with foster orangutan Acara.
Since then, Weila continues to bond with Acara and grow stronger. Acara is doing a fantastic job as Weila’s foster, showing confidence and adjusting to Weila’s quirks. Hogle Zoo’s team is taking things day by day, continuing to bottle feed Weila thanks to Acara’s support and foster training. Thank you for cheering Weila, Acara, and the team along the way.
Swing by Great Apes on your next visit to witness their heartwarming bond and see how much Weila has grown!
