Celebrating a Living Legend: Jacky the Orangutan Turns 48 at Bali Zoo

🎂 A very special Bali birthday – Jacky the orangutan at Bali Zoo just turned 48! To put that into perspective, wild orangutans usually live around 30–40 years, so Jacky is not only thriving but also a living legend here in Bali. He’s been so well cared for by the zoo team, and it really shows in his health and personality. To celebrate this milestone, Bali Zoo has teamed up with local artist Monez to create a limited-edition merch line. The best part? Proceeds help fund the Chainsaw Buyback Program – protecting orangutan habitats in Kalimantan by reducing deforestation. 🌳💚 You can grab the merch at the shop right out front of the Savannah Café (the perfect pit stop for families anyway!). And don’t forget – Bali Family Finds Pass holders get 10% off entry to Bali Zoo. 🦁🐒 Happy Birthday Jacky – here’s to many more bananas, naps, and watermelon birthday cakes! 🧡 @balizoo @balizoomerch @monez_ @balifamilyfinds #BaliZoo #BaliWithKids #OrangutanConservation #JackyTheOrangutan #FamilyTripBali
