Here the Orangutangs live in the rainforest nature reserve, and a more or less wild except for the feeding times and when visitors arrive. They were amazing to see and very sweet!

Unfortunately we chose to go at one of the busiest times of the year, bank holiday and everyone else in Malaysia seemed to have the same idea!
