Indonesian Sumatran orangutans released into the wild

Sumatran orangutan in a cage soothed prepared to be released into the wild at a rehabilitation center, in Sibolangit, North Sumatra, Indonesia, Friday, July 10, 2015. Forty eight-year-old orangutan where they once kept as pets illegally were rescued from palm plantations Palm released again in the national park in order to maintain continuity. The rise of land conversion in Indonesia led to the existence of a population of orangutans in Borneo and Sumatra island is increasingly under threat from habitat loss, illegal logging, fires and poaching. Conservationists predicted that without immediate action, orangutans are likely to become the first great ape extinction in the wild. (Photo by Ivan Damanik/NurPhoto)
