orangutan in wildlife. Find out their condition after the
massive fire at Kutai National Park
All the orangutan

basic facility.
The park
represents a number of principal vegetation types, including
coastal, mangrove forest, freshwater swamp forest, kerangas
forest, lowland flooding forest, ulin, meranti, kapur forest, and
mixed Dipterocarpaceae forest. This Park is also part of the
largest relatively pristine ulin forest in Indonesia.

(iron wood) in Sangkimah has a height without branches of 45 m,
a diameter of 225 cm or a circle of 706 cm, and a volume of 150
m3. It is the highest and largest plant recorded in Indonesia.
As well as a variety of plants, this Park also has a high animal
diversity. Primate groups like orangutan (Pongo satyrus),
Mueller's Bornean grey gibbon (Hylobates muelleri), proboscis
monkey (Nasalis larvatus), long-tailed macaque (Macaca
fascicularis fascicularis), maroon leaf monkey (Presbytis
