New trees for the rain forest

Since 2011 Orang-Utans in Not e.V. has been financially supporting the reforestation of damaged areas in the Lamandau River Wildlife Reserve in Central Kalimantan Province, Borneo. The former logging area comprises 76,040 hectares of protected peat swamp forest and is now home to relocated and released orangutans. The Lamandau reforestation project is coordinated by the Orangutan Foundation UK.

In addition to the reforestation of degraded area, planting of local fruit trees within the reserve is also being undertaken to increase food quantity and diversity for orangutans and other species; this is termed “enrichment planting”.
