I'd be interested in knowing how long they survived on their own in the wild at just four years of age. Couldn't have been very long as they didn't have near the amount of knowledge to make it. There was still a lot to learn about what foods are poisonous, what animals to avoid at all cost, how to properly build a nest, to not come down to the ground unless absolutely necessary. Granted, this was back in 1976 and our knowledge about them was still very limited at that point, so these people probably had no idea that they weren't even close to being ready. They probably assumed that since they were able to pick fruit off a branch and knew how to climb that they were ready.
Had the same idea. At least 8 years is spent in maturing and learning skills to survive from mother. But not enough knowledge for sure at this time period.
Something that I somehow missed the last time I watched this... While they were crossing the river on foot and slipped, sending him downstream trapped in a crate, once they got him back on shore and verified that he was ok, the crate shouldn't have been opened, and he definitely shouldn't have been picked up and coddled. Again, they probably didn't know any better at the time, or that they had the memory capacity of an elephant, but picking him up probably sent a message to him that every time something goes wrong, someone will be there to comfort him.
That poor 🦧 after he almost drowned. After they opened the crate he jumped out like "Get me the fuck outta here y'all mofos are gonna kill me. I'll go the rest of the way by myself."
Now knowing what is known 40 plus years later this video is quite dated, but it does show the beginning process of the concervation and protection of the Orangutans! Kudos to these men and women in this video who were and are so dedicated to the survival of these beautiful animals.
4 years is far too young for an orang to be released on its own. orangs stay with their mothers untill they are 9 years of age . its unlikely a 4 year old orang could survive on it's own . as there are many things they have not learned that only their mothers could show them. not as much was known about the the orangutan at this point most likely. much more is probably known about them now. a 4 year old will be very susceptible to larger predators . baby orangs are much prone to spending time on the ground instead of in the canopy which makes them vunerbale. on orangutan island the t.v program the care givers kept finding young orangutans sleeping on the ground instead of in the tree top. this was because of bot having their mothers teach them nest building and the dangers of being on the ground.
Yes.. I agree.. they're just babies. Poor things.. They couldn't possibly have learned what they need to know, I don't care how good the human teachers think they are. Seeing that orang being handheld on the way to being , essentially, abandoned brought tears to my eyes. It's the same as our leaving an 11 year old to cope in the city. :sigh:
This is a very old video they were releasing Orangutans at the age of 4, it was ridiculous. there were bunch of European people who had no idea what they were doing but they wanted to help this amazing being and they were creating more damage. I had an argument with one of those people on another video they're releasing 4 year olds and she felt guilty wanted to comment on my comment. They're just a bunch of ignorant people that never had children. You can tell the anxiety on those babies... plus why put them far away where they couldn't come back to the santury if they don't feel comfortable... only a psychopath would do something like that. It just reminds me of people when they wanted to get rid of their dog, they would drive the dog miles and just dump him in the wild, that's psychopath Behavior. Well I gave thumbs down to this video plus I couldn't watch it all the way to the end. 👎👎
Same here could not finish it. Putting a child in a boat is traumatizing. The orangs are just as humans. Is a fact. So hopefully there is no more of such cruelty pf abandoning 4 year olds in forest by western scientist.
Well just hop into your time machine & go back to 1976 to tell them that. Tell the one's who are actually doing something that you watched a few CZcams videos & are now an expert on orangutans. It's 1976,we have the power of hindsight. You try & determine when to release an orangutan at what age without CZcams and without internet to prove how easy it is!!
That poor little guy in the crate going down the rapids. He popped out of there reaching for Regina so fast. He must have been terrified, i know I was!
This lady is great lady,s with her friend doing a very good job for all this beautiful babies That lost their mommy,s now they in good hands Bless you all Done a very good work for all this babies thank you for sharing ,
Anne their moms were murdered or used as prostitutes the lady Google how to cook sausages on knowledgeable about the time babies let's pretend that you're teaching survival skills to survive in forest.
Mind you,this is 1976!!!!No message about palm oil,not yet.And no solutions yet for small farmers,like for instance sugar palm trees.For more inspiration I recommend the recently posted summary about sugarpalm-ethanol-fuel-production,which could be a solution for all:government,local people,animals and last but not least:nature.Type this on Google:Sugar palm ethanol - Analysis of economic feasibility and sustainability
It just gave goosebumps...poor children orangutan .. they dont even want to get out of the cage for "release"!! Poor fellows will not survive. Couldnt they do more research...?
Clowns??? I don't know anyone who sees Orangutans as clowns and they were releasing them at a very young age back then, far too young giving they spend 8 years with their mother learning everything they need to know, I wonder how many of these infants managed to survive if any survived
Beautiful animals living in up the tree at the top of the tree this lady is very brave to live with them all thank you for sharing your beautiful video love your video thanks. From. Spain thanks
OK, so this all took place in 1976, well having seen the release programs from 2009, I think that these Orangs were very young. I'm no expert but 4yrs of age they would most likely still be with their moms learning to servive. Who knows what they were taught before release. Just a question in my mind. That was a long time ago, over 36yrs. now that I think about it
shamison1980 she is wounderfull lady's with her friends love this animals they all God sent to do this job they very cute and smart Thank you good video .
Did they survive without the necessary skills taught by their mothers? What are the results to-date of the survival rates and the increase in population of these orangutans? If they did a study, it would be interesting to know.
Mr.Screw, I've seen a few recent videos that show Palm Plantations in the mountain areas. This video was produced, by my count, some 36 years ago. "Cant stop progress" is right...
utilizing a helio for an orangutan's release is a complete & total waste of resources!! (fuel, emissions, pilot's time, etc). Knowing most charity & recovery centers don't have much money and need the public's assistance (via donations) the use of a helicopter is very expensive and those funds could of been used for a lot of other things than a helio ride! JMO
I watched all 4 parts. It was a good documentary, thanks to all maybe you are now old and scary to get Corona. I wasn’t born if they took this documentary! ❤️🦧❤️#stayhome
The 2 women in this video should be fired for the way they Mohave treated the two orangutans! The 2 small animals have been scared to death from the treatment these 2 women have done to them! Shame on them If I were their boss,. I’d fire them !

I agree but this place I believe is still working to save them. Guess they are trying to do good with what they have.
My thoughts exactly

I hope they are still around, and I'm sure by now that they've learned so much more about them. At least I hope they have.

So unbelievably cute that the dear creatures jump into the sacks of their own accord.

Сколько же переживаний животным доставляют перемещения их в природе, которые оуществляются руками человека.
This is very very.good God Bless you caretaker I wish i cold be dear to help u guys Love Orangutan.
Perasaan haru banget orangutan takut naik perahun..trms ya mrk diselamatkan
It just gave goosebumps...poor children orangutan .. they dont even want to get out of the cage for "release"!! Poor fellows will not survive. Couldnt they do more research...?
Good On These People For Helping To Preserve These Orangutans And Returning Them To The Forest Where They Rightly Belong!🦧🌴🌿🇮🇩
When i was a kid, the end credits used to scare me a bit.

Clowns??? I don't know anyone who sees Orangutans as clowns and they were releasing them at a very young age back then, far too young giving they spend 8 years with their mother learning everything they need to know, I wonder how many of these infants managed to survive if any survived
Back then we did not know that even though orangutans do not like water they can actually swim they do but definitely not if they can help it
Beautiful animals living in up the tree at the top of the tree this lady is very brave to live with them all thank you for sharing your beautiful video love your video thanks. From. Spain thanks
I was so sad when they recovered the crate from the river

By 1978 they were discovered and sold to the local glue factory 🏭
these people are angels .... I'm suck because I just couldn't do any to rescue these animals ...
shamison1980 she is wounderfull lady's with her friends love this animals they all God sent to do this job they very cute and smart Thank you good video .
@tfs2O3 Sick
10:53 is that one of the Orangutans who was in the boat crossing the river?
😞 so sad
Did they survive without the necessary skills taught by their mothers? What are the results to-date of the survival rates and the increase in population of these orangutans? If they did a study, it would be interesting to know.
Bukit lawang my vilage
Hulo.Happy to know your village.I hope there is more forest now than in 1976.
@@jyothipandit2755 thx, but now many people stay there😭😭😭,many guest house and hotel,,
those are too small to be on their own, which is good means some other animal will have a tasty meal
They have to STOP this destroying the Forest! So sad.
He is still to young they should have kept him at less 4 more years he's still a baby I pray he's doing alright does anyone know how he's doing??????
5:18 I would have enjoyed seeing the bags being thrown off the helicopter
Mr.Screw, I've seen a few recent videos that show Palm Plantations in the mountain areas. This video was produced, by my count, some 36 years ago. "Cant stop progress" is right...
God.
Trust me if anyone of us wants orangutans by tomorrow provides them you don't have to spend whole a lot of money just reasonable enough
Id love to take em all home with me
Thank you Mr Hancock
Таскают их зачем то туда сюда
I really HATE seeing the cutting of those trees that are so important to the SURVIVAL of the ORANGUTAN!
Can't stop progress. Man will figure out a way to profitably cut down those trees up in the mountains of Indonesia.

Malaysia and Indonesia have no right to destroy the rainforest they live in, the rainforest belongs to the inhabitants

Throw em out the helicopter door!
The Orangutans Need To Be Self Reliant And Not Depend On Humans For Food!🦧🍈🌴🌿🇮🇩
100% sure those were eaten by hungry predators what a poor helpless monkey
Instead of helio ride throw them🦧to the tiger atleast one🦧 will be two meals for the tiger
