Eirina, the Sumatran Orangutan, eagerly awaits her first baby’s arrival, and the animal care specialists at our zoo couldn’t be more excited. As the days pass, they diligently monitor her every move, ensuring that Eirina and her little one are given the best care possible. And in their efforts to keep her comfortable during her pregnancy, they stumbled upon an unexpected remedy that has made a remarkable difference – a special pregnancy tea.
Early in Eirina’s pregnancy, her caretakers noticed she wasn’t feeling her best in the mornings. Like many expectant mothers, she was experiencing morning sickness. And just like any concerned parent, our animal care and health teams brainstormed ways to alleviate Eirina’s discomfort. That’s when they decided to try giving her a special pregnancy tea, a gentle concoction that could help soothe her tummy.
To everyone’s delight, the tea worked wonders for Eirina. After sipping her morning brew, she became more active and seemed to feel better throughout the day. It was as if the tea had provided her with an extra burst of energy and alleviated her morning sickness. And what makes this even more remarkable is that Animal Care Specialist Cindy C. once enjoyed the same tea during her pregnancy. Her familiarity with the tea and its effects on her well-being made her even happier seeing it working its magic for Eirina.
