Welcome to the Houston Zoo’s FOTO FRIDAY Caption Challenge results post from Friday, “Ape”ril 22!

Last Friday, we posted a photo on Facebook and asked you to leave your best caption in the comment section. Then readers could “like” each caption comment to vote for their favorites. Their votes, combined with those of our own panel, determined the caption to appear under the picture right here on the Official Houston Zoo Blog this week. We hope you’ll come back for the fun EVERY FRIDAY.

YOUR VOTES HELP DETERMINE THE WINNERS!

DID YOU KNOW: Palm oil is a form of edible vegetable oil produced from the African oil plam tree (Elaeis guineensis) which has been planted on plantations throughout Malaysia and Indonesia, home to some of the world’s most endangered wildlife — including orangutans.

Palm oil is used in many cookies, candies and products. Become a responsible consumer and support orangs by starting to look for palm oil on labels and buying either palm oil free products or ones that are part of the Roundtable for Sustainable Palm oil. CLICK HERE for more info and a list of palm oil free candies – just in time for Easter!
