“Humans share at least 28 unique physical characteristics with orangutans,” wrote IFS Officer Susanta Nanda while sharing a hilarious video of the goofy animals. Shared on July 1 on Twitter, the video shows one orangutan trying to prank another. The short-clip was initially shared back in 2017 by Save the Orangutan organisation on Youtube.
In the video, one can see one goofy orangutan wearing a sack over his head and trying to gain his friend’s attention. From climbing on each other to playfully wrestling with each other, the two orangutans make the video a joy to watch. According to the Save the Orangutan organisation, the video was shot at the Nyaru Menteng Orangutan Rescue Center in Borneo.
The pranks our brothers play😊

Human shares at least 28 unique physical characteristics with orangutans but only 2 with chimps & 7 with gorillas. That perhaps makes them more human like & a joy to watch. pic.twitter.com/fm52Vuo1Vo
