BORNEO ORANGUTAN REINTRODUCTION PROGRAM

NYARU MENTENG, CENTRAL KALIMANTAN

Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation has rescued over 1200 orangutans in Central Kalimantan and currently care for and support almost 450 orangutans at Nyaru Menteng.

The Central Kalimantan Orangutan Reintroduction Program at Nyaru Menteng was established in 1999, specifically to provide care and rehabilitation to displaced or orphaned orangutans rescued from areas of habitat loss through human development activities.
Located in Nyaru Menteng Arboretum, about 30 kilometers from downtown Palangka Raya, our main activities at Nyaru Menteng include orangutan rescue and translocation, the provision of welfare and healthcare, rehabilitation, and reintroduction. Conservation of habitat and wildlife can only be achieved by working together with local communities and other stakeholders, hence in all areas of our work we fully engage with local communities and schools on community development activities and outreach conservation education.
