RE: The Endangered Sumatran Orangutans Spotted In Jungle Trekking

in #amazingnature5 years ago

Great post. Very comprehensive. Very useful details, especailly because they are based on your own experience and observation.
I have seen these creatures only in captivity in some zoos. It would be amazing to see them in their habitats.
Hopefully, countries like yours will keep and reinforce their conservationist practices and make it possible for future generations to enjoy these fabulous creatures.
Thanks for sharing your experience and beautiful country with us.

Hi @hlezama thank you for read my post, yes, the observation based on many times trekking there not only once, because i meet different orangutans every time, with their different caracters, aggressif one, good one, shy one, cool one ;D The interesting fact is, in a territory, we found only 1 male orangutan, the rest is female orangutan-semiwild, so interesting for observe their social life. The local ranger called him Jenggot, meaning Beard as he has long beard like shown on my photo above, he is the big one with fat belly. Yes,I know some organizations that they run some program for saving the orangutan also campaigne, includes the government.

Fascinating. Thanks.
Let's hope lucky Beard keeps their population growing.
