Sandakan Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre - Tour from Kota Kinabalu |
|
|
Watch baby Orang Utans being fed and taught survival skills and see the Water Village in Sandakan
| Overview | |
|
The Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre in Sandakan, in the Sabah district of North Borneo is located in the middle of the lush Sepilok Forest Reserve. Spread across 43 sq kilometres of land, it is a sanctuary for about 25 young and orphan Orang Utans apart from 60-80 other Orang Utans who roam freely in the reserve. It is the largest Orang-utan sanctuary in the world and also the scene of an exciting conservation programme. The orang-utans are not kept in captivity, but rather come and go as they please while becoming used to living in the wild again after being held in captivity by various people. Dozens of other wildlife species are also treated here, including Sun bears, gibbons, Sumatran rhinos and the occasional injured elephant. Sandakan was once the capital of the British North Borneo Charted Company. Today, it is a bustling town also serving as a gateway to other wonderful destinations on the east coast of Sabah.
