After surviving the illegal wildlife trade, Taymur now lives on a pre-release island, where he continues preparing for life as a wild orangutan. His days are filled with foraging, nest-building, and growing ever more independent. Now, he is simply waiting for the right moment to begin the next chapter of his journey, returning to the forest where he belongs.
BACKGROUND STORY
After months of repatriation efforts from Kuwait, where he was discovered by local police following a traffic accident involving a drug-influenced smuggler. Now, Taymur has undergone a complete transformation. Once weak, Taymur has now grown into a strong, robust, and muscular individual with an excellent body condition score. Supported by optimal nutrition and routine supplements at Nyaru Menteng, his physical and mental health have dramatically improved, making him fully ready for the next step, Pre-release Island.
