A MORE INDEPENDENT SAYANG
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.
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.

A huge number of orphaned or displaced orangutans have come through our centers over the years and despite the significant effort to halt deforestation in Indonesia, orangutans sadly continue to arrive in all conditions and of all ages.
When we talk about forest, we would also discuss about its various functions:
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.
