Semenggoh Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre -
Orang Utan Tour
Situated 30 minutes away from the city by road is the Semenggoh Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre.
Animal lovers and outdoor enthusiasts won't want to miss out on this excursion, which features a 740 acres sanctuary for a number of Sarawak's indigenous wildlife including the original " Man Of The Forest" - the unique and gentle Orang Utan. Be there just before the feeding time to see the orang utan coming out from the forest to the centre feeding platform and get a close encounter with them. Feeding is done twice a day by the park rangers
Most of the orang utan have been taken from illegal captivity during the illegal logging activities and poaching of animals in the jungle . Therefore , there are not many of them left in the jungle of Borneo . In the centre , they are then slowly rehabilitated to go back to their natural habitat . |
