Koling
$100.00 / year
Sweet little Koling arrived as a small baby. An all too familiar story saw him brought to us from a palm oil plantation. Named after the village next to where he was rescued, this tiny orphan was separated from his mother in a way that most certainly left him distressed and confused. His mother was more than probably killed. Koling looked up with those large innocent eyes and appeared a little lost, looking for love and care..
Koling was checked and pronounced healthy on arrival at OFI’s Care Centre. He has thick, shiny hair, healthy skin and a little pot belly. Koling shares a sleeping enclosure at Camp Danielle, the infant nursery, with his best buddy, Sugar, and the sight of them cuddling each other to sleep is incredibly heartwarming. These two are rambunctious little orange “rascals”. They are inseparable, enjoying games, climbing, and exploring together.
Koling is an active, happy, and confident young orangutan. All baby orangutans are indescribably cute, but from his initial arrival Koling was one of the cutest infants at the Care Centre. He still remains so. It’s not just something physical. It’s something in his eyes and in his personality and spirit. Whether he’s somersaulting through the playground, exploring the forest, or quietly watching from a tree, he continues to charm everyone around him. Koling’s calm and gentle nature makes him friends with all, whether they are human or orangutan, large or small.
