Ruthie was born in 2006. Her mother was brutally killed and she was kept as a pet by humans
who d
id not treat her good, so she was suffering from both phycically and mental scares
when she arrived at the Nyaru Mentengs Centre. Ruthie hs been a troublesome child
for the centre - hurting both herself and others, but new she is doing much better thanks
to the great people living and working at the centre.
Ruthie is a victim of the palm oil industriesī ruthless fell of the rain forest - but  one day
 - one day she will be able to live as a wild orangutan in the rain forest that BOS has saved.
 
 
 
Ruthie lives in the Nyaru Mentengs centre - run by Danish Lone D. Nielsen
The centre is part of BOS (Borneo Oragutan Survival Foundation) and right
now there are more than 650 orangutans living there - saved from the consequences
of the palm oil production. Without BOS these animal would either die or be sold
on the illegal pet market. UNīs enviroment program estimates, that without help
the orangutan will be wiped out in 15-20 years.
