Indonesia pet orangutans released back into the wild

Description

Two young Sumatran Orangutans spent nearly two years learning to fend for themselves at a rehabilitation centre and 'forest school' before being returned to the wild at Pinus Jantho Forest Reserve in Indonesia. The rescue is a rare spot of bright news for the critically endangered species, which has seen its habitat shrink drastically over the past few decades largely due to the destruction of forests for logging, paper, palm oil and mining.

  • Adorable Tiny Seal Cub Refuses to Return to the Wild

    Meet Kroshik, a tiny seal cub who was about to be released back into the open waters of Russia's massive Lake Ladoga. Kroshik was found by fishermen near the village of Sviritsa in Russia's Leningrad Region on March 25th and was later placed under the care of vets at the Marine Mammal Rehabilitation Center. Caretakers were quite surprised about Kroshik's size, he was one of the smallest of his kind ever to have been admitted to the center. An animal welfare organisation called the Friends of Baltic Seals Foundation then tried to release Kroshik, along with another seal cub named Pasha, back into the wild, but were in for a surprise when Kroshik, whose name literally translates to tiny crumb from Russian, touched the water and decided that he would rather stay with his human buddies. It's unclear Kroshik was just too attached to his carers or whether the water was just a bit too chilly that day.
