Asia > Indonesia > Bukit Baka Bukit Raya National Park
Summary
- Central Bornean Orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus wurmbii) are present in Bukit Baka Bukit Raya National Park.
- It has been estimated that 675 individuals occur in the site.
- The orangutan population trend is unknown.
- The site has a total size of 1,810 km².
- Key threats to orangutans are illegal logging and hunting.
- Conservation activities have focused on providing affordable healthcare, monitoring of illegal activities by community members, reintroduction of orangutans.
- The site is a release site for rehabilitated orangutans.
Site characteristics
Bukit Baka Bukit Raya National Park is located on the Schwaner mountains between West Kalimantan and Central Kalimantan, on the island of Borneo, Indonesia. The land is dominated by lower mountain forest, lowland evergreen forest and upper mountain forest (BirdLife International 2022).
