Pondok Ambung Tropical Forest Research Station in Tanjung Puting National Park, is operated by Orangutan Foundation since 2005. Research provides the basis for making key decisions on conservation protection for important habitats. This station has been the base for research on; crocodiles, entomology, bats, proboscis monkeys. We support and encourage Indonesian and International research students and award two annual research grants. In 2004, the PHVA (Population and Habitat Viability Assessment) Workshop brought together the world’s foremost experts on orangutans. Using the results of an orangutan population survey that was funded by the Orangutan Foundation and satellite imagery, the workshop identified all known orangutan populations and identified those most critical to the survival of the species.
We are now accepting applications for the 2010 Orangutan Foundation Grant. Deadline for applications is 28th May 2010.
