女孩和大猩猩的"成长"友情

　　The last time Emily Bland met Rishi the orang-utan, they were both still at the crawling stage。

　　美国小女孩艾米莉和小猩猩“里什”初识时，还都处在刚会爬的婴儿阶段。

　　So when the pair were reunited two years later, the three-year-olds spent a blissful afternoon climbing, swinging from rings and tyres, pedalling around on a plastic tricycle and sometimes pausing for a hug。

　　两年后这两个三岁大的家伙重逢，度过了一个无比愉悦的下午：一起爬树、荡秋千，艾米莉骑着三轮车载上“里什”四处游逛，不时停下来相互拥抱一下。

　　Rishi's first day of play with Emily came in 2008 when her father Barry, a photographer, had an assignment at the Institute of Greatly Endangered and Rare Species (TIGERS) and took her along。

　　据了解，艾米丽和“里什”的初次见面追溯到2008年，当时她的摄影师父亲要到美国佛罗里达州的“濒危和稀有动物保护组织”给那里的动物拍照片，并带上了女儿同去。没想到，年纪相仿的两个小不点儿竟然一见如故，很快就玩到一起了。
