Description

Lanang is growing up to be a healthy and beautiful male orangutan. The skin of his face is already starting to become dark (a sign of leaving infancy behind) but his eyes have remained as warm as ever. As Lanang grows older, he is becoming more and more independent and is finding his own way in the forest. Here he collects a wide variety of fruits and leaves to consume, with a particular interest in rambutan fruit. It is often hard work to keep track of Lanang because he covers such wide areas of forest. When he comes back to the caregivers, however, he lets himself be brought back to his night enclosure without any fuss. He is, indeed, very sweet and gentle.

Additional information

Why Foster an Orangutan?

By becoming an Orangutan Foster Parent, you will help care for the displaced and orphaned orangutans at the OFI Care Centre and Quarantine (OCCQ) facility, during their rehabilitation back to the wild. As a Foster Parent you will contribute to providing the medical, dietary and emotional care that the orangutans need to thrive. Your foster purchase is also tax-deductible and you will be sent an official tax acknowledgment letter from OFI.

What is included in a kit?

Each Foster Parent Intro Kit includes an adoption certificate, the biography of your foster orangutan, a recent photo of your foster orangutan, an information sheet about orangutans, and other promotional materials. Foster Parents receive updates every six months with a progress report on how their orangutan is doing as well as a new photo.
