In Compliance With ToursByLocals' Animal Protection Policy - Rescue - Rehabilitate - Educate & Awareness - Research * Neither a "zoo" nor an amusement park Orangutans are three distinct species of great apes—Bornean, Sumatran, and Tapanuli—each found exclusively in Asia. These remarkable creatures are native to Indonesia and Malaysia, and can only be found in the lush rainforests of Borneo and Sumatra. Over the last 60 years, the Bornean OU population has dropped by 50%. Their natural habitats are rapidly vanishing, driven by deforestation, forest fires, road expansion, and the conversion of large swathes of tropical forest into palm oil plantations to meet global demand.
