Waco orangutan expecting, registered at Target for baby shower

Waco -- Cameron Park Zoo is getting ready for a big celebration Dec. 18, as an orangutan couple will be showered with gifts for their expected baby and a few for the parents as well, according to a Target gift registry set up by zoo staff.

Announcement of Mei and KJ’s orangutan baby shower was posted on the Cameron Park Zoo Facebook page.

On the registry? Spongebob Squarepants bubble bath, Play-doh, finger paint, the classic book Goodnight Moon, and of course, a Dolly Parton “Pure & Simple” CD and Britney Spears fragrance. Because animals have different tastes, also on the list is The Very Best of Simon & Garfunkel.

Each item was selected to provide enrichment activities for not only the new arrival but other zoo animals, Terri Cox, zoo curator of exhibits and programs, told the Waco Tribune-Herald.
