Bornean orangutan, which is critically endangered, was born in a zoo.
Castle and Dudley Zoo claimed that the male was born in the newly constructed PS500,000 outdoor enclosure. It was installed on 25 June.
Jazz, Jazz's mother, is 30 years old and also has Sprout, an 11-year-old girl. Djimat (33), arrived from Denmark in October to join the European Endangered Species Programme.
According to the zoo, it was thrilled with the visit.
Pat Stevens, the leader of Upper Primates Section, stated: "The baby looks beautiful and is alert and eating well as he snuggles up with mum. While we also spotted Djimat looking lovingly on his new offspring, we also spotted him."
The zoo said keepers were able to confirm the pregnancy with a urine test and Jazz had been closely monitored during her eight-and-a-half-month pregnancy.
The birth of the baby means that the zoo now boasts five Bornean orangutan populations, which include the family group and one male Benji.
According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), Bornean orangutans are listed as critically endangered on their Red List. They share about 97% of their DNA and are considered one of the most endangered animal species in the world.
It stated that they are at risk due to loss of habitat in Indonesia, where palm oil plantations and illegal logging have benefited from them.
