Poor Beni met his match when he encountered the King of Salat island, Petruk. After medical treatment, he was moved to a different island where he stays well away from the dominant male & has lots of female company! A lesson hard learned. #OrangutanJungleSchool #IslandUpdate

Ramangai was rescued in March 2021 when he was 6.5 mos old. He had scars on his left arm & right thigh, a fever & was too weak to move. His independence & confidence have since grown, and he is now confident enough to explore, play, and climb trees at #OrangutanJungleSchool

Monita can be a bit of a problem student, hitting other students & staff with sticks, and bunking off her with her friend Bumi. She's sparky and very bright, and despite her antics, a wild future is calling! Join Monita at #OrangutanJungleSchool here 👉 bos-uk.org/project/monita

This is Petruk, who, despite his run in with Beni, is actually a gentle orangutan. Like every rainforest territory, each island has its dominant male, and others have to learn how to show him respect, but this cheeky macaque has no such concerns! #OrangutanJungleSchool

A #wildlifetrade victim, Papa was repatriated from Taiwan in 1994, aged five. He can't be released to the wild because he lacks the survival skills. Instead, he lives on a purpose built #SanctuaryIsland at Samboja Lestari with female companions. #MeetTheResidents #NotAPet

In 2019, Greta arrived at Nyaru Menteng traumatised and weak. Like most other rescued baby orangutans, Greta was allegedly found alone. One of her arms appeared to have been broken in the past, but it healed well on its own. Now, she's thriving at #OrangutanJungleSchool
