The act of giving birth is a true miracle all by itself. Welcoming a living creature into the world speaks joy and unconditional love, and this isn’t only true for humans, but animals as well.

Cameras at the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust captured one of the most incredible moments ever. Sumatran orangutan gives birth to her first ever baby. The staff believed this new mom was infertile, but she surprised them all.

She could be seen sucking the baby’s sac before she gives it a hug and embrace it. Once the little bundle of joy is all clean, she takes it in her arms and shows it to her caretakers. Such a lovely moment showing a proud mother.
