AGILE IQO

Iqo is growing more self-sufficient and now enjoys climbing tall trees. She eats all of the fruits given to her, including watermelon, corn, bananas, melons, and tubers, and also consumes leaves and bark. She is not a picky eater, according to our surrogate mothers, and still likes to drink milk from a baby bottle.

BACKGROUND STORY

Iqo, a female baby orangutan, was surrendered to the BOS Foundation on 3 November 2022 by residents of Tumbang Kajamei village, Katingan Regency, Central Kalimantan. A resident of the village travelled for four hours by motorcycle to hand over baby Iqo - who arrived exhausted and dehydrated - at the Nyaru Menteng Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre. Iqo was placed in quarantine for three months alongside Rumba, another young orangutan rescued around the same time, and joined a small Forest School group in late December 2022. Despite Iqo and Rumba spending a lot of time together while undergoing quarantine, each preferred to play on their own in Forest School.
