A Heartfelt Wildlife Care Documentary
At the Sacramento Zoo, every animal receives dedicated attention and compassionate care. Among their most beloved residents is Makan, a gentle orangutan who recently fell ill. This short documentary-style video production captures the Zoo’s veterinary and animal care teams working tirelessly to support Makan’s recovery — showcasing their deep commitment to wildlife health and welfare.
