Wild Bornean orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) at Semenggoh Nature Reserve in Kuching, Borneo, Malaysia.


Kuching, the capital city of Sarawak state in Borneo is home to the Semengogh Wilfdlife Reserve, a sanctuary with the purpose of rehabilitating troubled animals of the state. They are free and only helped when strictly needed, thus geting a chance to see a wild Orang Utan ( people of the forrest in Malay) has been one of the things of my travel “to do” list that I have finally accomplished.
