Palm oil plantations in Indonesia are ravaging local forests and destroying the habitats of orangutans, driving them towards extinction. The Centre for Orangutan Protection, or COP, is an NGO on the island of Borneo that rescues and cares for these animals. At their forest rehabilitation center, staff help young, orphaned orangutans by acting as their family and teaching them the skills they'll need to return to the wild. The COP also monitors the surviving habitats of wild orangutans and reports companies carrying out illegal development, hoping to put a halt to further plantations.
