The Sepilok Nature Resort, Sandakan, Sabah
Image by Andrea and Antonella Ferrari Hidden amongst a veritable treasure trove of tropical plants and grasses, hug trees and spectacular orchids in bloom, the quaint bungalows of the Sepilok Nature Resort are within walking distance of the world-famous Kabili-Sepilok Forest Reserve, precious home of the last wild Orang-utans of Northern Borneo. The resort offers all the comforts and amenities needed after a long wet day spent trekking in the forest: all the timber chalets-sitting by a beautiful natural lake - have attached bathrooms with hot and cold water, shower and bathtub, ceiling fan and air-conditioning. Meals are served in the central building under coved terraces, and it is not uncommon at all to wake up in the morning with an Orang-utan or a few pig-tail Macaques sitting on the verandah. Besides being the ideal staring point for most other wildlife land destinations in Sabah, as the fauna-rich Kinabatangan river and the surrounding Sukau area, the Sepilok Nature Resort also offers the perfect setting for relaxing after a long plane trip, before continuing on a diving holiday to Lakayan.

These studies have been specifically concerned with wild orangutan behavior, the development of orangutan conservation programs, and the re-introduction of captured individuals into the wild. Specific areas that have been investigated include orangutan subsistence, sociality, reproduction, cognitive potentials, communications and tool use. Other primate studies have been carried out on proboscus monkeys and macaques. A small number of SFU undergraduate and graduate students have been involved in field work at Tanjung Puting.

Orangutan Pongo pygmaeus
Endangered

The name of this homely creature is orangutan, and means “wild man” in Malay. They are heavy-bodied, thick-necked anthropoid apes, native to the swampy coastal forests of Sumatra and Borneo. They have bowed legs and very long arms, sometimes with a span of 2.3 m. Their huge bellies and sparse coat of shaggy red hair make them particularly distinctive. Orangutans are about two thirds the size of gorillas and very powerful.
In trees, they swing, Tarzan-like, in great flying leaps. On the ground they walk on all fours, but not easily, as their short legs are weak and they lack a heel bone. Orangutans are herbivorous. They grow to about 1.6 m in height and weigh about 100 kg. They spend most of their time in the tree-tops, constructing sleeping platforms of leaves and branches, much like a gorilla does.
Today the greatest threat to this species is habitat destruction and disruption. Rain forest is rapidly being logged and cleared for agricultural development and mining, leaving only patches of suitable habitat. The orangutan is very sensitive to human intrusion, and as a consequence, suffers a further reduction to their already low rate of reproduction. To have any hope of saving this species, it is imperative that we preserve their remaining habitat and carefully manage existing reserves.

Orangutan Pongo pygmaeus
Endangered

Wild populations of this peaceful, intelligent, fruit-eating ape are now found only in northern Sumatra and Borneo. Judging from fossils found in southern China and northern Vietnam, the orangutan was, in prehistoric times, more widely distributed throughout the tropical lowland forests of southeast Asia. The world population now numbers between 15,000 and 30,000 in the wild and about 500 in zoos.
The major cause for the recent decline is the continuing destruction of the forests, and, to a lesser extent, the illegal killing of adult females to obtain juveniles for the animal trade. The species is now fully protected by law throughout its range, but enforcement is difficult in remote areas. Existing reserves in Sumatra and Borneo are important in the orangutan's survival. Additional reserves, forest management, and stricter control of international trade are also essential.

Malaysia nature havens feeling the pinch
Fewer visitors for Sabah's orang-utans SANDAKAN, Malaysia (Reuters) Business has been slow for months for Khui Lin Lee, a tour guide who organizes trips to the orang-utan rehabilitation Centrex near Sandakan, a thriving coastal town in Malaysia's eastern state of Sabah on Borneo. The three little islands off Sandakan bay where visitors can organize day trips to see turtles coming ashore to lay eggs are also deserted. "Some hotels say foreign visitors only make up five percent of occupancy. You can only find two or three foreign guests at a single hotel," said Khui. "In the past, sometimes we didn't have enough guides. Sometimes taxis were not enough to carry tourists," she said. Sabah has not been spared from the impact of the September 11 attacks on the United States.

• For its first few weeks of life, a young orang holds tight to its mom’s belly as she swings through the forest in search of fruit. Then when it is older and better at balancing, it rides "piggyback" so it can see what’s going on.
