Impressive Weekly Animal Pictures: August 1, 2011

There are plenty of animal pictures released every day. Here, we opt for some of the most impressive animal picture of the week from July 22 to 29. They are the photos of the fattest orangutan in Britain, a cute panda biting a board in South China, three cottontop tamarins playing at a zoopark in Germany, two rufous hummingbirds confronting each other in Oregon and so on.



At 100kg, this orangutan is known as the fastest one in Britain. After switching to a new regime of fruit, vegetables and plenty of exercise, this orangutan has lost 20kg in the previous 11 months. The 14-year-old ape Tubby Oshine has been kept as a pet for 13 years from Johannesburg city in South Africa. The animal is currently raised at Monkey World.
