EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Willy Kurniawan, an orangutan takes center stage as it is pictured at a pre-release island used by the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation (BOSF) in Palangka Raya, Indonesia. The image captures the essence of conservation efforts and the tireless work being done to protect these magnificent creatures. The orangutan's expressive face reflects both curiosity and intelligence, reminding us of their close resemblance to humans. Its gentle gaze seems to convey a sense of vulnerability, highlighting the urgent need for conservation initiatives like those undertaken by BOSF. Set against the lush backdrop of Sei Gohong village in Central Kalimantan province, this photograph serves as a powerful reminder of nature's beauty and our responsibility to preserve it. The pre-release island provides a safe haven for orangutans before they are reintroduced into their natural habitat, offering them a chance at survival amidst increasing threats such as deforestation and poaching. Willy Kurniawan's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the individuality of this particular orangutan but also its role within its ecosystem. This image serves as an invitation for viewers to connect with these incredible creatures on a deeper level and inspires us all to take action towards protecting their future.
