An infant Sumatran orangutan is held by his mother at the San Diego Zoo, Wednesday, March 24, 2004, after receiving his name today after more than 180,000 America Online users cast their vote. The two 1/2-week-old male was crowned Cinta, which means love and affection in Bahasa, the official language of Sumatra, an island that is part of Indonesia. The exclusive online naming poll was part of 'What's New @ the Zoo,' an educational programming area of AOL. Sumatran orangutans are critically endangered. This is the first baby to be born at the Zoo in nine years. (AP Photo/Zoological Society of San Diego, Ken Bohn)
