I think I posted about this a few months ago, but it's a pretty cool program. They give Ipads to Orangutans so that they can continue interacting with each other throughout the winter months spent indoors at zoos. Experts say the long months indoors can stunt social growth, and the Ipods allow the Orangutans to communicate with each other, as well as take on activities like painting....check it out.

The only question I have is, if I get an Ipad, can I Skype with an Orangutan? Cuz that would be cool.
