International Orangutan Day: What does a second chance look like for an orangutan?

To celebrate World Orangutan Day, we release a podcast with the Centre for Orangutan Protection to explore one of the most powerful journeys in orangutan conservation: the rescue, rehabilitation, and release of orangutans back into the wild. Through stories from the field, insights from experts, and a behind-the-scenes look at the challenges of orangutan rehabilitation, this episode delves into the emotional and ecological complexities of reintroducing orangutans to their natural habitat. We welcome Hardi Baktiantoro and Indira Nurul from the Centre for Orangutan Protection, one of the organizations that works on the frontlines of orangutan conservation in Indonesia.
