Projects

Habitat Protection

OAUK supports several projects across Malaysian and Indonesian Borneo to protect vital orangutan habitat.

Pre-Release Programme at Sepilok

OAUK in partnership with the Sabah Wildlife Department, introduced a Pre-Release Programme aimed at tracking, monitoring and observing the behaviour of rehabilitated orangutans in the Kabili Reserve at the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre, in order to identify whether the individual orangutans are suitable for release into a truly wild environment.

Community Engagement Project

Collaborating with the local community and helping to engender a sense of ownership over local wildlife can be vital for conservation initiatives. Our team have been delivering environmental education programmes in Sabah since 2012 and are hoping to inspire the next generation of wildlife guardians.

Conservation Apparatus and Equipment

Over the years Orangutan Appeal UK have helped to provide vital equipment to assist with conservation efforts out in the field. Such equipment has included several rescue vehicles, radio transponders, drones and computer equipment.
