This is what a traumatized orangutan looks like. Please donate today via link in comments to fund the daily treatment costs of rescued orangutans at YIARI’s rescue center.

This heartbreaking footage was filmed shortly after she was rescued by the BKSDA in 2016 and taken to the rescue center of our partners, YIARI. The psychological trauma she is displaying is a result of her time being kept as a ‘pet.’ This unnatural environment resulted in psychological damage that was evident in every move that she made.

In the video, she is seen hugging herself tightly—a heartbreaking attempt to replace the comfort and security she should have received from her mother. Our partners YIARI are doing everything they can to provide Joss and other rescued orangutans with the motherly love and care they so desperately need.

The cost of this care is significant. YIARI are committed to rehabilitating Joss and preparing her for a future in the wild, but this process takes years and demands substantial resources. And Joss is not alone. In fact, there are 68 orangutans in YIARI’s care right now!

We need your help to "Pay for a Day" over the next 15 days. The daily cost of running YIARI’s orangutan project is $5,714 / £4,501. We know this is a big ask, but we believe in transparency as YIARI look ahead to the next 15 years with hope.

Please, if you can, make a donation today via the link in comments section. We cannot reach this target without your help! Thank you.

I remember back when these videos first came out. There was Buddy, a baby orangutan who's mother was killed, and he was taken for a pet. When they found him he was so terrified and emaciated that his limbs had swollen to the point that any physical contact caused him excruciating pain. He'd cry and howl in pain even when the Veterinarians tried to feed him. Thankfully there are some unbelievably dedicated and very special people who were there to care for this little guy. He is now free in one of the sanctuaries that were created for these incredibly beautiful and wonderful primates. This little one also broke my heart. I've never seen anyone or any other being so terrified, so sad, and so lonely that they've wrapped their arms around themselves so tight as if they are hugging the only thing they have left, and THAT is so heartbreaking. No one, not a human being or any other creature should ever have to go through what these little orangutans had to experience. Seeing their mothers killed right in front of them. Then placed in a cage like a Parrot. The one orangutan's cage was so small, that was why his limbs swelled up so severely. He could barely move, AND his diet was awful! These are extremely intelligent and critically endangered animals. Yet somehow these Palm Oil Plantation owners use mercenaries to hunt them down. This needs to stop! It should have been stopped decades ago!

Painful to watch, but also happy there were those who cared enough to promise a life free from abuse and give this baby a real home to live with his adopted family members ❤️

She doesn't have her mom to hold on to and hug. This is sad. She is really traumatized and having a very hard time without her mom. She definitely was taken from her mother to soon. So sad.
