THEY ARE FREE! 🙌

After years of rehabilitation at Samboja Lestari, Catherine, Dennis and Ames have been released into the Kehje Sewen Forest. 🦧🌿

Marlon, originally scheduled to join this release, had to remain at Samboja Lestari for veterinary care. We hope he can join the others in the forest soon, once he has fully recovered and received medical clearance.

This marks the 28th orangutan release from the Samboja Lestari Rehabilitation Centre to Kehje Sewen Forest, made possible through collaboration among the Ministry of Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia (), the Nusantara Capital City Authority (), BKSDA East Kalimantan (), and the BOS Foundation.

Every release strengthens the future of wild orangutan populations and contributes to the long-term protection of their forest habitat, because protecting orangutans also means protecting the forests they call home.

Enjoy your well-deserved freedom, Catherine, Dennis and Ames! 🧡

THEIR BIG MOMENT IS COMING! 🦧🌿

Catherine, Ames, Dennis and Marlon are getting ready to go home to the wild.

From learning the skills they need to survive to honing them on a pre-release island and preparing for a life beyond the rehabilitation centre, each has come a long way. Now, they're just one step away from freedom.

Novita survived the flames, but the fires haven't stopped. Every day they burn, more orangutans are left trapped and in danger. That's why we're extending our Emergency Fire Appeal. Will you stand with us again?

👉 Please donate urgently here: https://donations.orangutans.com.au/2026-spring/3

The good news: Thanks to your generosity, we were able to purchase two thermal drones. With them, our teams can:
🦧 Find trapped orangutans like Novita (link to her full rescue story below). At dawn, thermal cameras pick out an animal's body heat against the cooler forest.
🔥 Spot fire hotspots invisible to the naked eye.
🌿 Detect peat fires smouldering underground, using thermal colour palettes that reveal them.
🌳 Assess forest conditions by creating detailed aerial maps.

The problem: Two drones aren't enough to cover all our work areas. We urgently need more.

Expertise is already on the ground: Our partner Lord of the Trees is leading the drone work, with three Australian drone and environmental specialists in East Kalimantan right now. They're training our own pilots to fly the drones, so the skills stay with our teams, and they are helping us map out our site's long-term future.

We won't leave any stone unturned to get more drones airborne so we can gather as much information as possible, save more orangutans like Novita, and protect their forest home.

👉 Please donate urgently here and stay tuned for updates: https://donations.orangutans.com.au/2026-spring/3

Exciting news from our Post-Release Monitoring Team!

They recently spotted our beloved Meryl in the dense forests of Bukit Baka Bukit Raya National Park.

Meryl was a long-time favourite in our BOS Australia adoption program and starred in the award-winning documentary series 'Orangutan Jungle School'. She was released in November 2024.

Check out how she and her fellow orangutan, Lykke, are doing in their wild home here: https://www.orangutans.com.au/hello-meryl-and-lykke/

Adopt an orangutan. Save their future. 🦧🧡

Right now, fires fuelled by this year's super El Niño are tearing through Borneo's forests. Orangutans are losing their homes and getting trapped in the flames.

At the Nyaru Menteng Orangutan Rescue and Rehabilitation Centre, thick haze blankets our Forest School. Every day, we walk a fine line: between teaching our orphaned students the skills they need to survive in the wild and protecting their health.

By adopting one of our orphaned orangutans, you can help them through this difficult time and towards a brighter future.

👉 Adopt now here: orangutans.com.au/meet-our-family

One-off gifts are vital to meet this emergency. But the emergency doesn't end when the flames die down and the haze clears. Every orangutan we rescue from the fires, and every orangutan already in our care, will need our full support for years before they can return to the forest.

When you adopt an orangutan, you commit to the whole journey: recovery, rehabilitation and release. Your steady support lets us provide each orangutan with what they need, for as long as it takes.

The fires are burning now, but our orangutans need us for tomorrow. Sponsor an orangutan today and help them on their long journey back to the forest.

👉 Adopt now here: orangutans.com.au/meet-our-family
