Synopsis
A desperate struggle for survival is raging deep in the heart of Borneo’s forests. Illegal logging is rapidly destroying the orangutans' last home in the wild, leaving hundreds of orangutan babies orphaned and homeless. The future appears bleak for the red-haired “people of the forest,” but a groundbreaking project offers a ray of hope that one of our closest relatives can be saved. Enter project pioneer Lone Droscher-Nielsen. Thanks to the passion and perseverance of Lone and her team at B.O.S (Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation) project, 35 young orangutans of Forest School 103 will get the chance to live wild on a protected, 100-acre island. Here, they will hone their survival skills with the hope that one day they can return to their natural habitat. On 26th May, at 9.00pm, viewers can watch these normally solitary creatures battle for power and struggle to form their own society on ORANGUTAN ISLAND.
