National Geographic VR takes you inside the YIARI Orangutan Center in Ketapang to see what it takes to teach a baby orangutan how to be an orangutan. Be sure to scroll around the screen with the cursor to see different camera angles!


You can easily support the center by adopting one or more of the orangutans being cared for by IAR! Adopt Pingky, Rickina, Neng, Gatot, Kukur and Mawa for yourself or a loved one today! Orangutan adoptions make GREAT gifts and last all year!
