Why go to the jungle if they can bring it to you – that’s pretty much the way things work here. The centre rehabilitates Orangutans and sends them back out into the wild and obviously makes a fair profit from tourists to supplement the cost of their work.
The centre has two features – the visitors post / reception area and the jungle boardwalk. At the visitors post there’s a shop and some displays on the wildlife of the area. Information on the Orangutans is given in a small cinema where you are told about the natural landscapes they prefer and that much of the jungle is being decimated by industry near the centre. The film lasts about twenty minutes and if its busy then take some water in with you as it can get pretty hot in there.
REPRODUCTION AND BABY ORANGUTANS
Orangutans are mature and capable of reproducing beginning when they are 7 to 10 years old. Females are pregnant for 8.5 to 9 months and give birth to a single baby. Young orangutans are weaned from their mothers at about 6-7 years of age.
NATURAL ENEMIES
The animal that poses the biggest threat to the orangutan is man (who uses its habitat and sells young orangutans as pets).
POPULATION
Orangutans are an endangered species. They are decreasing in numbers quickly as they lose habitat to people. Further aggravating the problem, baby orangutans are caught and sold around the world as pets.

Orangutans are in grave danger of extinction because their rainforest habitat is beingconverted for human use - the biggest threat is permanent agriculture in the form ofpalm oil plantations and more recently illegal logging within protected areas.
The aim of the Orangutan Foundation is to protect the orangutan and theconservation of its rainforest habitat whilst caring for and repatriating ex-captiveorangutans back into the wild.
Additionally the Orangutan Foundation through its educational programme plays avital role disseminating information about the orangutan and its plight in order togalvanise the public and policy makers towards an appreciation of the ape’s valueand current dilemma so that it might be saved from extinction.

The image was captured in Borneo on the island of Kaja, where apes are rehabilitated into the wild after being rescued from zoos, private homes where they were being kept as pets, and even from the butcher shop.
Unfortunately, the ape was unable to master the skill of fishing, but not for lack of trying. Later, he was able to use his makeshift spear to catch fish that were already trapped in fishing nets.
Some speculation has risen from the picture as to the importance of the event. Many claim that it seems a bit convenient that the orangutan was able to find such a perfect spear on his own. Others say that perhaps this is simply a learned reaction after watching humans, and that perhaps he was mimicking, rather than actually trying to catch a fish.
The other side of the argument is that perhaps this is the greatest evidence for the theory of evolution, and that we have actually been privy to a breakthrough of monumental significance.
What do you think? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
Orangutans are shy, high profile animals that are active during the day. They live alone in large territories. Can you think how they can get food? They need a large area in order to get enough food. If too many orangutans in one area, it can make them fight each other to get food.
Mother and offspring only a long-lasting orangutan social group is the who live together for about 7 years. When mating, the male and female orangutan stay together for only a few days.
Sleeping Platforms:
Each evening, orangutans will construct a place or nest on a tree branches for the night to sleep. These nests are made out from leaves and branches. Nests are shared by a mother and her nursing offspring. Sometimes, the orangutan will use a leaf as a "roof" to use when it rains. Orangutans often sleep temporary in the afternoon after a morning spent obtaining food.
COMMUNICATION AND VOCALIZATION
Male orangutans are capable of very long, loud calls that carry through forests for up to O.6 mile (1 km). The call is made up of a series of sounds followed by a buzz. These calls help the male claim his territory, call to females, and keep out introducing male orangutans. Males have a large throat sac that lets them make these loud calls.
