Young orphaned orangutans have been seen being pushed together in a wheelbarrow at a rehabilitation center in Indonesia.
The friendly primates, between three and seven years old, are being cared for by surrogate mothers, a practice used in all Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation centers.
In addition to being taken on a wheelbarrow ride on wooden platforms through the rainforest terrain, they are also seen hanging from trees and waiting while their school lunch is prepared in the forest.
Other images show them playfully posing for the camera and huddled together in a group enjoying each other’s company.
Orangutans are being rehabilitated at the centers in the hope that they can learn natural skills and one day return to the forest.
The adorable snaps were taken at two centers in Kalimantan, Indonesia.
Established in 1991, the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation is the largest orangutan conservation organization in the world.
Orangutans between 3 and 7 years old are transported in a wheelbarrow by surrogate mothers, a practice used for efficiency reasons in all BOS Foundation centers
