Topan was rescued on October 13, 2017, and arrived at Nyaru Menteng in a very weak state after being found by local villagers near a river.
She was severely dehydrated, malnourished, and dangerously underweight at only 1.5 kg. Since then a lot has happened with Topan who is now attending Forest School where she is comparatively smaller than her peers, yet hugely courageous! She is a very active young orangutan who climbs even the highest trees and loves to dangle from high branches. Her best friend is Ale, who follows her everywhere.
