These babies are appearing in a new BBC programme called Orangutan Diary.
In the show, presenters Michaela Strachan and Steve Leonard, follow the stories of these endangered creatures.

Experts say orangutans are endangered because the jungle they live in is being chopped down to plant other things. It's thought they could be nearly extinct by 2012 unless something isn't done to save them.
