We are working hard to protect the Bornean orangutan and its habitat for future generations. Here are some of the ways we've helped develop a world where orangutans and nature thrive.
At the end of last week, our Post-Release Monitoring (PRM) Team was patroling along Tyo River when we detected Agus’s signal. The signal was weak due to heavy rain and probably distance, but we pushed on and continued the search for Agus anyway.
After a full week of rain in Kehje Sewen Forest, today’s patrol was blessed with beautiful sunshine. Yosi, Bariyo and I were tasked to patrol along transect Wani, down to Tyo River.
Post-release monitoring is running smoothly at Bukit Batikap, with the five new orangutans released at the end of February observed every day during the week following their arrival.
At sun rise, we depart daily on our regular patrols to track our reintroduced orangutans and see how they are getting on.
A couple of weeks ago, residents of Pelangsiran - a small transit town on the border of Kehje Sewen Forest - reported sightings of an orangutan.
