@int.animalrescue: Two orangutans have been rescued after devastating forest fires destroyed their habitat in Indonesia. Meet Adil and Gigih, two male Bornean orangutans found struggling to survive in a fire-ravaged area of West Kalimantan, Indonesia. Adil was discovered in an oil palm tree near the burnt forest. A veterinary examination revealed a small wound on his thigh, suspected to have been caused by an airgun pellet. Gigih was found 20 metres high in a tree. He was underweight and dehydrated, requiring urgent veterinary care to stabilise his condition. With forest fires destroying the trees they depended on for food and shelter, neither orangutan could safely remain in their habitat. Thankfully, on 24 October 2026, both orangutans were successfully relocated to a safer forest habitat. The operation was conducted by Indonesia's Ministry of Forestry through BKSDA West Kalimantan, working alongside our partners, YIARI, and PT MPK. Indonesia's Minister of Forestry, Raja Juli Antoni, was also present for their relocation.
