Become a Foster Parent to “Uttuh”
Uttuh arrived at the Orangutan Care Center and Quarantine this year (2011). She was rescued by an Indonesian wildlife organization from a palm oil plantation where her mother was being chased with sticks. The story is that Uttuh’s mother was so terrified that she had no choice but to leave Uttuh in the middle of the plantation road. The probable real story is that Uttuh’s mother was killed. When Uttuh arrived at the OCCQ, she weighed only 3.5 kilograms (8 lbs). She currently weighs 7.5 kilograms (16.5 lbs). With the fate of her mother unknown, Uttuh is utterly dependent on the care given by OFI. Please consider fostering her to give her a chance to return to a free life in the wild.
Each foster parent kit includes a bumper sticker, a poster, an orangutan photo/bio, an activity worksheet, an outer information packet, postcards, a Camp Leakey sticker sheet, an OFI brochure and an OFI volunteer team brochure.
