JUNGLE WALK IN ORANGUTAN REHABILITATION CENTER!
A 10 to 45-minute trek through tropical rain-forests and rubber plantation in Bukit Lawang leads to the feeding ground of the Orangutan Rehabilitation Center . Rustling sounds can be heard from the forest then big brown furry bodies appear, swinging through the trees overhead for a free meal.
After a good hearty breakfast, the great apes had fun together as they swung from branch to branch.
Since the December 2004 tsunami, the threats towards the survival of the Sumatran orangutan have increased. Prior to the Tsunami, the orangutan population faced challenges such as illegal pet trade, illegal logging, forest fires that resulted from the need to convert virgin forest to timber and palm oil plantations, and the road development project in Northern Sumatra.
