The Orangutan is one of man’s closest relatives, but man’s activities have left the Orangutan in danger of extinction. Over the last century their population has dwindled by 90%, while approximately 80% of their habitat has been lost during the last 20 years.
The Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation (BOS) is a not-for-profit foundation. BOS works under an official agreement with the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry for the conservation of Orangutans and their ecosystem by involving and educating the local people.
