ORANGUTAN RESCUE! This dramatic footage was taken during the recent rescue of Riam, a young orangutan that was trapped in a fragmented area of land surrounded by roads and housing. Fires in 2015 destroyed most of the orangutan habitat in this region, forcing orangutans like Riam to search for food on farmland. This put Riam at risk of conflict with the locals, as he was eating their sugar cane crops. After receiving reports from the locals, our Orangutan Protection Unit were immediately dispatch

The bond between orangutan mothers and their young is among the strongest in nature. For the first couple of years, the baby is completely dependent on their mother for food and transportation. Mothers are known to stay with their young up to eight years. During this time, the offspring learns how to find food, what and how to eat, how to avoid predators, and how to build a sleeping nest. #HappyMothersDay | Science Channel
