Meryl
Meryl came to our Nyaru Menteng Rehabilitation Centre in early 2015. At the time, she was eight months old and weighed only 2.7 kilograms.
She was rescued from captivity and cared for by our veterinarian Meryl Yemima, who we named her after. Today, Meryl is a cheerful female orangutan who has acquired exceptional survival skills in forest school for her future release into the wild.
Meryl is one of the stars on the awarded documentary series “Orangutan Jungle School” on Stan.
