In September 2015 a baby orang-utan was abandoned and left for dead in a urine soaked cardboard box in Borneo. After being found he was transported by motorbike for 9 hours to a rescue sanitary. Sanctuary volunteers have nursed him back to health. He was malnourished and dehydrated. He was nearly bald with grey flaking skin. Rescuers said he was left to die in the sun.
To help relieve him, coconut oil was massaged all over him to soothe and soften his itchy skin. He was also placed on a drip to rehydrate him.
He was named Gito by his rescuers.
Here is his story
He has made a remarkable recovery, and now is meeting new friends.
To learn more about these wonderful creatures and the sanctuary that saved him go to International Animal Rescue.
Donations are needed.
