Orangutan homes and habitats on peatlands was also burned throughout Kalimantan. See the cronologics!.
Facing this situation, IAR Indonesia together with BKSDA fielded a rescue team to evacuate the orangutan.
Rescue teams use stun guns to avoid unwanted things, because the orangutans are wild animals.
When anesthetized, the condition of this young orangutan was quite alarming. In addition to being very thin and dehydrated, the rescue team also found a rotting wound that was coiled around his right leg due to a loop of rope.
The rescue of orangutans, which took place less than a week ago, from the rescue of the previous orangutans is an evidence that a large wave of orangutan rescue is imminent.
"We just rescued two orangutans from the land that was burned last Monday," said Argitoe.
Director of IAR Indonesia Program, Karmele L Sanchez, said that forest fires in Kalimantan are a clear proof of the crisis regarding climate change and mass extinctions throughout the world.
In the burning habitats, there are millions of species of animals and plants that cannot be saved. Orangutans was also be a victims of fires. (*)
