NEWBORN NEWS THIS INDONESIAN PRIMATE DAY!
Borneo Orangutan Survival (BOS) Foundation
Save orangutans.
We'd like to share some good news in honour of Indonesian National Primate Day, which falls on January 30th annually. The Kehje Sewen Forest has welcomed a new resident! Following confirmation from our veterinarian in October last year that Lesan was pregnant, we are thrilled to announce that she has since given birth!
Lesan, a rehabilitated orangutan who was reintroduced to the forest in 2012. Orangutans are endemic to the islands of Borneo and Sumatra and are on the verge of extinction, thus various efforts are being made to protect them, including the BOS Foundation’s rehabilitation and release programme.
