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.
Last week we shared with you a story of Yayang’s daughter Sayang, who has started to live independently in Kehje Sewen Forest. This week we have even more exciting news from this pair; Sayang is about to have a baby sister or a brother!
A few days ago, in the early afternoon, we spotted movements in the top of a tree near Camp Lesik. As we approached, we found that it was Yayang’s daughter, Sayang.
On the 28th February, four new orangutans (Mentos, Compost, Dewi, and Jatihan) were released into the wild in the Batikap protected forest. Male orangutan, Jatihan lived in the wild until he was over two years old.
This week we encountered four released orangutans in Kehje Sewen. They are Casey, Lesan, Hamzah, and Mona. How happy we feel for having the opportunity of bumping into memorable glances.
There are many new lessons our rehabilitated orangutans have to experience before being able to live once again in natural habitat, in the forest.
