AN AMAZING ENCOUNTER WITH SVENJA
Our PRM team in the Hiran watershed of TNBBBR conducts phenology surveys and unexpectedly encountered Svenja.
August has been a busy month for the Foundation and particularly for our program in Central Kalimantan. Releasing orangutans is exciting enough in itself and we are delighted with our progress.
But this month has been even more wonderful with the return of Lone Doscher Nielsen to Nyaru Menteng to help support our team and the amazing work our program has been implementing under the management of Anton Nurcahyo, and also the filming projects we are working on with the BBC and the Danish Broadcasting Corporation.

This August we have successfully released another 8 semi-wild oranguans into Bukit Batikap and at the same time been delighted to host two film crews who are working with us on exciting projects which will be aired in 2013. These projects will continue for several months so for now we’ll wish them much luck and work with them together with our dedicated teams.

Orangutan Day is celebrated every year on August 19th!
Every kid gets bored at school now and then, dreaming of escape but rarely daring to try. However, there's always that one brave soul who takes the plunge. Such was the case at the Nyaru Menteng Forest School one sunny morning.
