A MOTHER and baby orangutan who were dying of starvation when they were rescued from the burnt forests of Borneo have been released back into the wild. The pair were saved from a plantation after villagers in Semanai, Simpang Tiga, complained that the starving animals were eating their crops. 'Mama Nam' was “severely emaciated” when she was found by International Animal Rescue (IAR) staff, and so malnourished that she was no longer producing milk for her child. But despite her fragile condition, she was so determined to protect her baby that it took three anaesthetic darts to make her fall from her tree and into the rescue team’s net. After over two months of rehabilitation, mother and baby were pronounced fit for release.
