After a recent trip to a zoo in Indonesia, TikToker @minorcrimes (Lola Testu) now has a story that she'll be able to tell for the rest of her life. And it's all thanks to a trendy ape.
A group of onlookers watched in awe as a mother orangutan found Lola's fallen sunglasses and preceded to wear them just as a human would. Thus raising the question — do orangutans have fashion sense?
One of the great apes saw the glasses fall and immediately went over to investigate. At first, it appeared as if the orangutan might eat the newfound pair of shades.
Onlookers laughed and cheered in awe as the mother ape sauntered around her enclosure, looking as cool as any ape had ever been. At one point in time, her baby tries to steal the glasses from her face but to no avail.
According to the World Wildlife Foundation, human beings and orangutans share 96.4% of their genetic traits. There are even instances where apes have been recorded mimicking human speech and vocal patterns
"So I’m down a pair of sunglasses but up a very good story," Lola said in the video description.
