Borneo Eating Endangered Species Malaysia Orang Utan Primate Sabah Sandakan
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Jack Jackson/Robert Harding, we are transported to the lush rainforests of Borneo, Malaysia. Here, a majestic Orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) perches gracefully on a tree branch as it indulges in its favorite treat - bananas. The orangutan's full-length presence against the backdrop of nature creates a mesmerizing image that showcases the beauty and tranquility of these endangered creatures in their natural habitat. With its expressive eyes and gentle demeanor, this primate reminds us of our close evolutionary connection to the animal kingdom. This photograph was taken at Sepilok Sanctuary in Sandakan, Sabah – an important conservation center dedicated to protecting and rehabilitating orangutans. The sanctuary serves as a haven for these incredible mammals who face numerous threats due to deforestation and illegal hunting. As we admire this contemporary piece of travel photography, we are reminded of both the fragility and resilience of our natural world. It urges us to appreciate and protect not only orangutans but all endangered species across Southeast Asia. Through this vertical composition, Jack Jackson/Robert Harding captures a moment that invites viewers into the intricate lives of these remarkable creatures while also encouraging us to reflect on our role in preserving their existence for generations to come.
