Enriching the lives of orangutans

In February Vice President of BOS Australia, Louise Grossfeldt travelled to our Nyaru Menteng sanctuary and worked with keepers and technicians to help develop a range of enrichment strategies.

Enrichment programs are vital for captive orangutans as they teach them how to forage for food, build, modify and use tools, increase agility and develop skills to survive in the wild.

A video clip can be found on our BOS Videos page along with other Nyaru Menteng footage.
