In June 2016, a tiny, helpless #orangutan was rescued from villagers and taken to Nyaru Menteng. Bumi, as he was named, had a fresh wound on his umbilical cord indicating he was a #newborn less than two weeks old and was so weak that he couldn't even keep his eyes open. It's not known what happened to Bumi's mother. Thanks to intensive, expert care, Bumi survived and now attends #OrangutanJungleSchool with the other little ones and is a #happy, playful little chap as the third photo shows. #Orangutans are not, nor ever should be, #pets #Orphan #Rescue #Rehab #Release #Forest #Freedom bos-uk.org

'#Conservation without action is just conversation' Dr. Jamartin Sihite CEO BOS F These are photos of the #OrangutanWarriors in action, heroes every one don't you agree? 💪 💛 As stated, one pic is of a translocation, the other three are of the final leg of the orangutans journey to freedom in incredibly difficult terrain. #Orangutan #Rescue #Rehab #Release #Forest #Freedom #Love
In 2001, aged just 4, Cemong was rescued from an amusement park, a vile place where he'd spent his whole life. Cemong showed an understandable dislike of humans but loved socialising with other orangutans and in Feb 2017 he was released to the #wild. With an arm span of 8 feet and weighing a whopping 120kg, Cemong is the biggest #orangutan to be returned to the wild by BOS and when last observed had acclimatised beautifully to his natural environment. Isn't he something?! #Orangutan #Rescue #Rehab #Release #Forest #Freedom #RedApe
@Regran_ed from @timlaman - Photo by @TimLaman. I’m excited to share that this image of a Helmeted Hornbill male coming in for a landing at his nest tree, was selected as one of @NatGeo’s “100 Best Photos of 2018”. Especially because this critically endangered species needs all the attention it can get to survive the current poaching crisis it is facing. Thanks to my collaborators at #ThailandHornbillProject and @rangkongid Please follow them and learn more and see how you can help. Lets spread the word and protect Helmeted Hornbills! Just Google “NatGeo best of 2018” to see all the 100 selects. #HelmetedHornbill, #Hornbill, #Endangered, #CornellLabofOrnithology, #ShotonRED, @reddigitalcinema. - #regrann
It's World Wildlife Conservation Day, and six more individuals are going home to the #forest, including lovely #Grendon who some of you may remember from the BBC Documentary series #Orangutan Diary! Please visit our Facebook page to read each individual's amazing story of their journey to #freedom! They've all worked so hard to get to this point, we're so proud of them and the #OrangutanWarriors who made this possible! 💛💪🌳🎉 #wildlife conservationday
