Too Cute! Siamang Tends to Baby Bird That Wandered into Habitat

Last month, one of the BioPark’s resident siamangs, Eve, had the opportunity to show off her maternal instincts when a baby bird made its way into the siamang habitat along the Ape Walk.

Megan Agena, a member of the primate care team, saw it all unfold and was moved by Eve’s gentle nature toward the little bird. 

“She was grooming it, attempting to nurse it, and every time it would make a noise, she would try her best to comfort it,” Megan said. 

Thanks to Megan and Eve’s teamwork, the bird was reunited with its mom safe and sound soon after. 

Hear the full story from Megan and see Eve with the bird in the video below!
