I have just returned from a wonderful trip to Vietnam and Borneo. I visited some suppliers in Vietnam to check up on the factory status and conditions (thankfully all still tip top!) and then headed to Borneo for some jungle trekking, wildlife spotting and scuba diving.
Our first stop in the Borneo was at the Sepilok Rehabilitation Centre, for orang utans.
It was an amazing experience, one I will never forget. Seeing the Orangutans being nurtured back into the wild was truly special and is all thanks to the hard work and dedication by the staff at the centre.
Sepilok Rehabilitation Centre in the Malaysian Sabah District of North Borneo was founded in 1964, to rehabilitate orphan orang utans. The site is 43 sq km of protected land at the edge of Kabili Sepilok Forest Reserve. Today around 60 to 80 orang utans are living free in the reserve.
It really is a wonderful experience so I thought I would share some photos with you below… enjoy!
Biome Lifestyle are considering adopting a Sepilok orang utan - so watch this space!

Orangutans are just awesome to see at Sepilok. Adopt one and educate your readers about this endangered species. Hope you come back to Malaysia for more jungle adventure, check out my rainforest pictures and videos at Nature Escapes.
