Release Monitoring Research - Update
Since I last wrote to you all back in June, the pioneering Tabin three (Unkuyong, Atama & Eniro) have been progressing very well on their own for the last six months. One of the most encouraging aspects of doing this research is discovering just how resilient orangutans can be, even though they were deprived of the normal seven or so years of learning that they normally have with their mothers.
