When rescuers discovered an orangutan, they assumed he was already
deceased. Gito, a young orangutan, was left to die after being confined in a
cardboard box covered in urine. Thepetneeds reports that because he had been
subsisting solely on condensed milk, he was really dangerously
undernourished.
According to rescuers from International Animal Rescue, Gito appeared
"mummified," but his situation was actually one of neglect and brutality
(IAR). Even the squad members who were the strongest were startled when they
observed Gito's condition, the organization said on its website.
Thankfully, thanks to the efforts of the IAR crew, Gito is now living the
life that every animal deserves. He is now able to leap, play on the jungle
gym, and look into the camera. IAR posted some pictures of Gito and stated
that they were happy to do so since they showed how far he has gone since
being rescued. He looks so much better, and he gets healthier every
day.
His development has pleased the vets much, and it is anticipated that he
will return to the wild in a day. He's also getting more animated.
Gito at least recovered the life he ought to have. Gito's success story
demonstrates to the public the fantastic work that organizations like IAR
can perform in animal rescue. See the video down below.
