Replanting Rainforest in Sumatra, Indonesia
Organization information
Sumatran Orangutan Society
Location: Abingdon, United Kingdom
Summary
We are working to rewild vital orangutan habitat that has been destroyed by illegal oil palm plantations within the Gunung Leuser National Park. We're seeing some really exciting results, with lots of wildlife starting to return to the restored areas of forest - including orangutans, elephants, sun bears, gibbons, leopard cats and many endangered bird species. We work with the local people, empowering, educating and encouraging them to become guardians of their forests and wildlife.
