Leonardo DiCaprio bros out with an orangutan

Leo, we know you have an Oscar now, but you're still not supposed to have a wing man that's cuter than you. 

Still, Leonardo DiCaprio fist pumped with this orangutan, who would absolutely kill opposite Kate Winslet in a period drama.

Okay, so didn't actually go to Indonesia to meet chicks. The actor/environmentalist stopped by the Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Programme's Orangutan Quarantine Center to check in on fuzzy primates while they build up their strength to survive in the wild. 

The orangutans probably will not be taking any advice the actor may have to offer based on his experience filming The Revenant, however. 

Leo supports conservation projects in Sumatra through the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation and hung out with some elephants on his trip.
