About Agop

Agop is an adventurous and friendly female, who arrived at Sepilok in 2022 aged 1. She loves exploring, trying new foods and playing with her friends.

Agop was found alone on agricultural land in a life-threatening condition. The circumstances surrounding Agop's abandonment remain a mystery and we'll never know how she became separated from her mother. Fortunately, she was rescued in time and taken into the care of Sepilok. Despite the fear, grief and confusion she must have felt when she arrived, she is progressing remarkably well and is well on her way to becoming a self-reliant and capable orangutan.

How adoptions help

Symbolic adoptions are an engaging way to contribute towards conserving the critically endangered Bornean orangutan by following the progress of a rescued individual at Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre.

Your contribution will go towards supporting various projects and initiatives which are all aimed at protecting and preserving these animals and their habitats in Borneo. This approach means that all the orangutans at Sepilok receive support and allows us to allocate resources where they are needed most, including rescue efforts, habitat restoration and our education and outreach programme.

We receive regular information from our care staff at Sepilok on each orangutan's progress, this allows us to provide you with a progress report on your adopted orangutan every six months.
