ADOPT AN ORANGUTAN TODAY

Adopting an orangutan in our soft-release programme is a unique gift and a great way to support orangutans.

Logos

Logos is a three-year-old male orangutan who has been in the soft-release programme in Lamandau Wildlife Reserve since 2023. He was rescued at approximately the age of one, when he was intercepted in Java, Indonesia on his way to becoming an illegal pet.

At Camp Rasak, Logos is starting to grow his confidence by climbing taller trees and playing with males living in the wild when they pass by. He has shown initial signs of nest-building but he still has a long way to go. Logos will be with us for several years until he has learnt all the skills he needs for an independent life in the wild.

Mona

Mona is a nine-year-old female orangutan who was rescued in March 2017 from life as an illegally kept pet living in a cage. The whereabouts of her mother were unknown and so as an orphan, Mona joined the soft-release programme in Lamandau Wildlife Reserve.

Mona has been at Camp JL for several years alongside Adib, who was recently released into the wild. She is an excellent climber and forager, often finding termite nests - an orangutans delicacy! As determined as Mona is, she is well on the way to becoming an independent orangutan.

From just £30 a year you can make a real difference in helping these orangutans return to a life in the wild.
