We went to visit the Bukit Merah Orang-utan Rehabilitation Centre and I was blessed to be chosen by Jidin for kisses and hand holding, this gorgeous 3 year old little guy has certainly stole my heart. Although many people were present he came back again and again to shower me with loves. The DNA sequence of an orangutan is 97% similar to that of our own, they are our closest animal relative and have many of the same systems as we do, such as gestation times and menstrual cycles. The only difference in DNA is they lack vocal chords, and instead produce sound with a throat sack. I know if they could speak they would ask for our help and to let their environments be. They are such intelligent creatures and deserve more off us humans, we create such dire problems for these critically endangered species and it is our duty to protect them. I know I will be doing all I can to help. If these pictures melt your heart please have a read or research into how you can help too. Deforestation and forest fires are the biggest threat to these guys, we humans should be ashamed to be the reason for the struggles they endure. #bukitmerahorangutanislandfoundation #savetheorangutans #savetherainforest #gesturzuitm #gesturz #betterfuturesglobalvolunteering #ljmugoabroad #nature #natgeo #humansaretrash @bmouif https://www.instagram.com/p/Bzx6GvTgphx/?igshid=zyelnlo32xku
