WATCH: World’s cutest preschool teaches baby orangutans how to live in the wild

We are huge fans of the incredible work being done by International Animal Rescue (IAR) to save orangutans in Borneo, many of whom had previously been kept as pets and abused, and rehabilitate them so that they are able to return to the wild.

Recently, IAR released footage of their orangutan “forest school” training facilities in Ketapang, West Kalimantan, and it has got to be one of the cutest things we have ever seen. It literally features a wheelbarrow full of baby orangutans being brought to a jungle gym designed to help them learn the skills they need to survive in a real jungle. 

If you are interested in supporting IAR’s work and their orangutan sanctuary in West Kalimantan, be sure to check out their website for more information.
