Orangutans are one of Indonesia’s most iconic and beloved animals, but they are also one of the most endangered. The Centre for Orangutan Protection (COP) is dedicated to protecting these majestic creatures and ensuring their survival for future generations.
Rescue and Rehabilitation
The COP is actively involved in rescuing orangutans that have been orphaned or displaced due to deforestation and the illegal pet trade. These orangutans are rehabilitated and given the necessary care to prepare them for release back into the wild.
Education and Awareness
The COP works tirelessly to raise awareness about the plight of orangutans and the threats they face. They conduct educational programs in local communities, schools, and online to inform people about the importance of protecting these animals and their natural habitats.
Advocacy and Policy Change
The COP also advocates for the protection of orangutans at the government level, pushing for stronger laws and regulations to safeguard their habitats and prevent illegal activities that threaten their population. They work closely with local authorities and conservation partners to ensure that orangutans have a safe and secure future in Indonesia.
Reforestation and Habitat Protection
In addition to rescuing and rehabilitating orangutans, the COP also focuses on reforestation efforts to restore their natural habitats that have been lost to deforestation. By planting trees and creating protected areas, they provide orangutans with the environment they need to thrive and reproduce.
