THREE MORE ORANGUTANS COME INTO BOS FOUNDATION CARE
This year the conservation status of Bornean orangutans was upgraded by IUCN from Endangered to Critically Endangered.
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.
This year the conservation status of Bornean orangutans was upgraded by IUCN from Endangered to Critically Endangered.
The survival of Bornean orangutans is continually under threat due to habitat destruction and hunting for the illegal pet trade.
Like a never-ending story, our rescue team from Nyaru Menteng have again rescued another baby orangutan that was being kept as a pet illegally by a local villager, this time in South Barito, Central Kalimantan.
The BOS Foundation’s centres are full to capacity, yet we continue to receive orphaned baby orangutans.
On June 1, a joint rescue team from the BKSDA of Central Kalimantan and BOSF Nyaru Menteng successfully rescued a baby female orangutan aged 4-5 months in Bereng Rambang village, Pulang Pisau Regency, Central Kalimantan.
