It's now official. Aman can see again and all is fine. He has been let out into his enclosure and is moving about as normal again, only this time he can see. Whereas before he was walking on his knuckles, feeling his way with his hands, now he just looks and moves. There are even signs that he is happy, with unusual movements such as throwing his hands into the air, and more brisk and frequent movement around his climbing structures.
When he first came out, he was still shading his eyes from the bright sun but this is normal. As time goes by, he will be able to adapt more and more to his newfound eyesight, and relearn behaviours that he once had. So good news all round for Aman. The operation was sponsored by the Orangutan Appeal UK, with volunteer donations going towards Aman's aftercare. |
