Synopsis

Established over 50 years ago, the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre in Sabah, Borneo, is one of the oldest in the world for these animals.

In this episode, we follow the training of orphaned baby orangutans, some only several weeks old, being bred by surrogate mothers, and the release of an adult back into the wild.
