‘Orangutan Rescue’ on Sky TV

The Orang-utan Rehabilitation Centre in Sepilok, Malaysian Borneo.

If you’re lucky enough to be a Sky subscriber you might like to know Orangutan Rescue premieres tonight and highlights the plight of these magnificent but very much endangered animals.

Michelle Yeoh, who appeared in the film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, returns to Malaysia where she was born and reports for this hour-long documentary.

Interestingly, it covers work done at Sepilok Rehabilitation Centre which many clients we send to Borneo actually take time out to visit.

If you’re interested in a trip to see orang-utan with Audley then why not take a look at our Guide to Orang-utan Spotting.

Orangutan Rescue is on National Geographic Wild channel on Thursday 8 July at 9pm.

Adopting your own orang-utan

Adopting a young orang-utan is an excellent way to help the project and you may be lucky enough to see your orang-utan when you visit Sepilok. Your adoption pack costs £30 and will include a certificate, full history profile, photographs of your adopted baby, and a newsletter.
