"Orang hutan" means "forest man" in one of Indonesia's many languages and our long-armed cousins do indeed show a remarkable ability to mimic our behaviour." Thanks Prole

We're more similar than you'd think! This orangutan is using tools, a very human trait.

Agree with geomysterio, it doesn't appear that the orangutan understands how/why the spears used by the fisherman work. It appears he's merely mimicking the motions as best he can.

That said, regardless of the implications, it's still a stunning photo.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that it's using a "spear." The splash makes it look more like it's trying to hit the fish with a stick. Perhaps it's using a tool, but nothing so advanced as a spear.

I can't wait for the next article: "Orangutans discuss the ontological implications of materialistic philosophy"

"A male orangutan, clinging precariously to overhanging branches, flails the water with a pole, trying desperately to spear a passing fish. It is the first time one has been seen using a tool to hunt. "
