Maury Povich reveals Denver Zoo orangutan's father

The Denver Zoo enlisted the help of former talk show host Maury Povich to determine the father of a baby orangutan. Povich revealed the results on video, declaring that Berani was the father. The baby, named Siska, was born to 15-year-old Eirina, a Sumatran orangutan. Sumatran orangutans are critically endangered due to habitat loss and illegal hunting. The zoo had to wait a few months to obtain a DNA sample from Siska to compare against potential fathers Berani and Jaya. Povich taped the announcement before attending the Daytime Emmy Awards, where he received a Lifetime Achievement Honor.
