The Flintstones, Scene matched and used by Sam the Orangutan

original movie prop

Tablet test was used by Sam the Orangutan as Gondo. Sammy grew up in the entertainment world working in many commercials and TV shows (such as Baywatch). He also starred in several movies (The Flintstones, Planet of the Apes, and Sammy’s most famous movie, Dunston Checks In where Sammy played the part of Dunston.) When Sammy became too strong and dangerous to work, he was retired to a small cage at the trainer’s compound where he became a breeder. In December 2004 both Sammy and Girlfriend Geri were sent to the Center for Great Apes, the only nonprofit sanctuary in North America dedicated to the permanent care of orangutans. Their son Jam arrived at the sanctuary four months later. Sammy enjoys enrichment activities -- especially painting. He chooses his own colors and stares at his painting when he’s finished, appearing to admire his work. Most days, Sammy can be found hanging out in his swinging barrel or traveling around in the chute system through the woods. SOLD TO ELLIOT12
