Visit Borneo to see the wild Orang Utan

Visit Borneo to see the wild Orang Utan

orangutan1We have only 4 rehabiltation centre for Orang Utan in the world, and Semengoh Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre is one of them. Here, they are working on the preservation of Orang Utans that have lost / become separated from their mothers, or that have been ilegally kept, and taking care of them in order to return them to the wild.

セメンゴ・ワイルドライフ・リハビリテーションセンターは世界に4つしかないオランウータン保護施設の一つです。ここでは、母親とはぐれたり、違法に飼われたりしていたオランウータンの子供を保護し、育てて森へ返す活動を行っています。

I thought they were like a family of human when I saw them taking care of their own children.

A lot of countries, there is few opportunities to see animals which live in the rain forest, so I would like you to go on local fields.

子供を世話している彼らは本当に人間の家族のようでした。

多くの国では、あまりこうした熱帯森林にすむ動物を見る機会はほとんどないので、実際に現地に行き見てほしいです!

Now you can meet the newly born babies ☺

The feeding time is 9:00 to 10:00 in the morning, and 15:00 to 15:30 in the afternoon so we recommend you to come around these periods.

※Keep your food or drink in your bag otherwise Orang Utans will take them!

今ならこの一か月の間に生まれて間もない赤ちゃんの姿も見ることができますよ☺朝9時~10時、午後15時~15時30分の餌付けタイムに訪れることをおススメします。

※オランウータンに盗られてしまわないように、食べ物・飲み物はカバンの中に!
