Now Monyo thrives in Nyaru Menteng's forest school for orphaned orangutans
Fortunately, Monyo was rescued and today he thrives and develops his orangutan skills in a safe and caring environment at the BOS Foundation's rehabilitation center Nyaru Menteng in the central part of Indonesian Borneo. But, there is still a long way to go before one day he is ready to return to his real home, the Borneo rainforest. Ahead of him are many years of rehabilitation, during which he must develop his natural orangutan behavior and learn all the survival skills he will need as a wild orangutan.
What do you get when you "adopt" Monyo?
When you adopt Monyo, you immediately receive an adoption certificate for him and his history per email.
In addition, we will send you regular updates about Monyo's life and development, so you can follow his life at Nyaru Menteng. You will get an insight into the stages he has to go through to get ready to live in the rainforest on his own one day. You hear about how he thrives and develops, and the everyday dignities and successes.
