#SOCUTE: Orphaned Baby Orangutan Gets a Bath at Rescue Center

Royal the baby Sumatran orangutan will steal your heart. He was filmed taking a bath at a rescue facility in Indonesia. According to the World Wildlife Fund, his species is "critically endangered." About a century ago, there were more than 230,000 orangutans in total, including their cousins, the Bornean orangutan. But now there are 104,700 Bornean orangutans and just 7,500 Sumatran orangutans left. Deforestation is to blame for destroying their rainforest habitat.
