Some orangutans cannot return to the wild because of permanent physical or behavioural conditions. By supporting Kopral & Friends, you help provide lifelong care, nutritious food, enrichment, and veterinary treatment, ensuring these special orangutans receive the love and care they need to live healthy, safe, and enriching lives.
BACKGROUND STORY
One of these unreleaseable orangutans is our inspiring Kopral. Kopral was kept as a pet in a cage until he escaped, climbing an electricity pole that electrocuted him and burned his arm. Unfortunately, his condition was so severe that both his arms had to be amputated when he arrived. Despite this, he was an outstanding student at forest school, climbing trees and building nests with his feet and mouth. Previously, Kopral had a best friend who always accompanied him, Shelton. Sadly, in 2022, Shelton passed away, leaving Kopral and all of us forever at the age of 14.
