Product Details:
Prepare for a rollercoaster ride of emotions following the life and death struggle to save irresistibly cute Orangutan orphans in Borneo. Presented by Steve Leonard and Michaela Strachan, this is a uniquely intimate look at the most engaging of the great apes, in one of the remotest corners of the world. There are currently 600 vulnerable orangutans being cared for, day and night, at the Borneo Orangutan Foundation. Most have had traumatic lives, clinging to survival as rainforests are burned around them, or snatched from the wild to be sold as pets. For the team of vets and carers, every day is a challenge. Steve Leonard and Michaela Strachan return to catch up on the progress of the rescued orangutans, meet some of the fragile new arrivals and discover how the fight against extinction is progressing.
