After being rescued from danger, these orangutans can't wait to get back to the nursery. It's the place they will always know as home. The story of how they were brought together could sure get teary-eyed.
Being separated from their families, these baby orangutans were left to survive on skills solely on nature's instinct. Mass deforestation, illegal pet trade, poaching, and forest fires made some of these babies orphans. Luckily, the Borneo Survival Orangutan Foundation found them and gave them a second chance.
Abu, one of the babies rescued, was found buried deep within the trees. He was alone and skinny. Almost like he hadn't eaten for days. It was apparent he had no parents and was existing. The foundation took him in, fed and trained him.
Aldo and Clyde were found together, almost in the middle of nowhere. If we recall, the rescue team had almost retired that day before hearing noises. When they located them, they were playing on the trees. Unlike the others, they seemed to do fine. We thought their parents were close by, so we didn't take them just yet.
The rescue team volunteered to stay with them the rest of the day. Through the wait, no parent was in sight. Thankfully, it seemed they hadn't had too much roughness of the forest. So, they were taken in and taken good care of.
There are so many rescue stories of so many other babies. The blessings of the charity made sure they were well-fed, bred, and trained. The babies are allowed to participate in an Orangutan Jungle School. Here, they can meet other animals like them, engage, learn, and get used to their natural habitat.
Still, no matter how fun the forest school is, these babies are always eager to go back to their nursery, almost like children who'd rather stay home. Whenever the transportation (their school bus) is ready to take them home, they all wonder and wrestle for the best spots. The foundation has turned to more of a home for these baby orangutans.
