23-12-2013 - Sumatran Orangutan
The objective is to establish a new safety-net population of orangutans in Sumatra through the rehabilitation and release of confiscated individuals. This project will allow us to release 15 individuals by June, 2014. After release SOCP will protect and monitor these orangutans by maintaining our onsite veterinarian and employing local staff to survey their foraging and nest-building behaviours, health, and reproductive fitness.
