A MONTH OF EXPERIENCE IN THE KEHJE SEWEN FOREST (2 – FINISH)

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.

The ongoing forest fires occurring in Central Kalimantan continue to threaten the lives of both humans and wildlife.
My name is Rika Safira and I am 24 years old. I had been working for Restorasi Habitat Orangutan Indonesia (RHOI) for 8 months before the opportunity arose to accompany our joint BOSF/ RHOI team on an orangutan release in August.
Forest fires have severely damaged or cleared large swathes of orangutan habitat across Kalimantan.
After a fire outbreak that burnt 30 hectares of rehabilitated forest at BOS Foundation’s Orangutan Reintroduction Center at Samboja Lestari in early September, another fire occurred in Samboja Lestari on September 23rd.
