Orang-utan Behind the Scenes

 

Shopping Like an Orang-utan

Orang-utans are switched-on shoppers. The South-East Asian jungle is a hard grocery store to negotiate; the shelves are often bare, and you need to know where to look to find decent produce. 

Things are not all that different for their human cousins.
Visit our orang-utans and learn the secrets of good shopping straight from the masters.

After preparing tasty and puzzling morsels for the orang-utans, join them on the dizzying heights of the Sanctuary roof, where you will help to enrich their day. Learn how you can help fight extinction with your shopping trolley.

Just don't look down...
