Orangutans - a species under threat
WILD TIME spoke to Orangutan expert Leif Cocks from the orangutan project. The Orangutan Project (TOP) is a not-for-profit organisation, supporting orangutan conservation, rainforest protection, local community partnerships and the rehabilitation and reintroduction of displaced orangutans back to the wild, in order to save the two orangutan species from extinction.
TOP is a non-partisan organisation that collaborates with several orangutan conservation projects, as well as providing habitat protection through its own programs to deter wildlife poaching, illegal logging and land clearing in Indonesia.
According to Leif the next 5 years are crucial to the survival of the Orangutans!!
