During a routine patrol in Kehje Sewen Forest, East Kalimantan, the Research & Biodiversity PRM team of PT RHOI captured a brief yet meaningful encounter with the Red-winged Woodpecker (Picus puniceus). Its subtle brick-red wings may go unnoticed at first glance, but its presence speaks volumes about a forest that is still alive and functioning.

More than just a striking bird, the Red-winged Woodpecker is part of the same living landscape that supports orangutans and countless other wildlife species. Curious to learn more?

Kayla was rescued from Kongbeng District, East Kalimantan, and welcomed to BOS Foundation’s Samboja Lestari in July 2025, when she was about 12 months old.

After a challenging start, Kayla slowly began to settle into the Nursery Baby group. With careful medical attention, calm interactions with her peers, and a safe environment, she started to regain strength, confidence, and curiosity. Our surrogate mothers and caregivers remain by her side each day, providing gentle closeness and reassurance as she heals.

This Valentine’s season, we honor a quieter kind of love. One that supports recovery, builds trust, and allows healing to happen at its own pace, strengthened by the care of our team and your kindness 💚

Did you know that BKSDA East Kalimantan and BOS Foundation care not only for orangutans preparing for release, but also for those who cannot return to the wild?

Some of them live on sanctuary islands, safe forested spaces designed to resemble their natural habitat. There, they can climb, swing, build nests, and forage just like they would in the wild. At the same time, our team continues to provide daily care, balanced nutrition, and close health monitoring.

The goal is simple but meaningful. Freedom with protection. A safe, fulfilling life even if release is not possible.

One of the long-term residents is Isti, a female orangutan who has called the sanctuary island home for years. Her story reminds us that every orangutan deserves a life with dignity and space to thrive 🌿🦧

Because loving wildlife does not mean owning them. It means protecting them and allowing them to live as close to the wild as possible.

The rubber trees in Samboja Lestari are more than just plants; they are a heritage that the community has cared for.

Through collaboration in utilizing rubber trees, local residents now have a sustainable source of income while also helping to protect the area from encroachment. Small collaborations, big impact for people and the forest. 🤍

Watching Baimah move today, it’s hard to imagine how her story began 🦧🌿

What you see now is confidence, strength, and curiosity taking shape at Forest School. Each swing, climb, and pause is part of her learning curve toward a future in the forest.

Second chances take time, care, and commitment. Baimah is proof of that.

Melihat Baimah bergerak hari ini, sulit membayangkan bagaimana kisahnya dulu bermula 🦧🌿

Yang terlihat sekarang adalah kepercayaan diri, kekuatan, dan rasa ingin tahu yang tumbuh di Sekolah Hutan. Setiap ayunan, panjatan, dan jeda sejenak adalah bagian dari proses belajarnya menuju masa depan di hutan.

Kesempatan kedua membutuhkan waktu, perhatian, dan komitmen—dan Baimah adalah buktinya.

Meet Jenny, a lively young female Bornean orangutan who arrived at BOS Foundation’s Samboja Lestari Rehabilitation Centre in January 2025.

From her early days clinging closely in the Baby House, Jenny has grown into a confident Forest School explorer. She now climbs higher, forages with curiosity, and playfully engages with her surroundings. Throughout this journey, our surrogate mothers stay close, offering steady warmth, gentle guidance, and constant encouragement.

This Valentine’s season reminds us that love can help someone grow. Combined with your continued support, this daily care is what gives Jenny the confidence she needs to prepare for life in the wild 💚

Kenalkan Jenny, seekor orangutan betina muda yang lincah dari Kalimantan yang tiba di Pusat Rehabilitasi Samboja Lestari milik BOS Foundation pada Januari 2025 lalu.

Sejak hari-hari pertamanya yang erat melekat di rumah bayi, Jenny telah tumbuh menjadi penjelajah sekolah hutan yang percaya diri. Kini ia memanjat lebih tinggi, mencari makan dengan rasa ingin tahu, dan berinteraksi dengan lingkungan sekitarnya dengan penuh kegembiraan. Selama perjalanan ini, ibu asuh kami tetap dekat, memberikan kehangatan yang stabil, bimbingan yang lembut, dan dorongan yang terus-menerus.

Bulan penuh kasih sayang ini mengingatkan kita bahwa cinta dapat membantu seseorang tumbuh. Bersama dengan dukungan Anda yang berkelanjutan, perawatan harian ini adalah apa yang memberi Jenny kepercayaan diri yang dia butuhkan untuk bersiap menghadapi kehidupan di alam liar. 💚
