Meet Ceria, our adoption Orangutan
We did not make this photo but this is Ceria, a baby Orangutan we adopted as a group as we travelled thorugh Malaysia. Her mother was shot by a farmer on a palm oil plant in search for food. Despite her troubled start in life, Ceria will be taken care of until independence, a process that can take 3 years of dedicated care. She will then be released. Best of luck, Ceria!
