We need your support to continue our orangutan research and conservation work.

The budget for orangutan research activities is approximately USD 3,500 or more per year. The majority of this cost is for the labor of field assistants. Orangutans roam about alone in the trees throughout the rainforest. In order for our research team to locate and track orangutans in the rainforest, at least two to three skilled assistants per orangutan are required. We also need a research station in the rainforest where we sleep temporarily, and research equipment and gear such as binoculars, GPS and cameras. Our research projects contribute to the understanding of the ecology of orangutans, thereby protecting their habitat and preventing their extinction.
Please help us to continue this important work!
