VIDEO: BOS Nyaru Menteng Forest School – Move-in Day!
The BOSF Nyaru Menteng orangutans have moved to their new Forest School area! Forest School students in Groups 4 and 5 were moved first. They made the short journey in transport cages without sedation, using double-cabin vehicles. Upon arrival at the new facility, they were placed directly into night enclosures. Their first Forest School session took place the following day. The orangutans from Forest School Group 3 were transported a few days later by bus, as they are younger and easier to handle. How cute is that bus ride?! The entire process went smoothly and safely.
Enjoy this wonderful video of the BIG MOVE and the first moments of the orangutans in their new and improved Forest School!
