Report: Masaki Tomonaga

Date: 2012/11/19 - 2012/11/27

During the whole travel schedule, we stayed in the Borneo Rainforest Lodge located in the Danum Valley Conservation Area, Sabah, Malaysia, from 20 to 26 November to observe the wild orangutans and other animals. During those days, we encountered orangutans almost every day. We observed the feeding, nest building, locomotion using branches, and social interactions of orangutans. We also did trekking in the rainforest to observe its biodiversity.
