The Borneo Orangutan Survival (BOS) Foundation is the largest primate rescue

project in the world, with nearly 1000 orangutans in its care. BOS is the only

organisation actively rescuing wild orangutans from oil-palm plantations, as

well as rehabilitating orphaned orangutans, displaced as a result of the

relentless devastation of their habitat to clear land for palm oil production.

BOS is committed to protecting the orangutan and its rainforest habitat, and

relies entirely on donations to achieve this.
