In the spotlight

This incredible show has it all, taking viewers on a roller coaster ride of adventures, heartaches, fun, friends, failures, and successes of all the orangutans who attend the BOS Foundation’s unique school.

Wildlife tourism has become a lucrative business worth around 250 billion dollars a year. These profits come at a cost. From the studio that brought you ‘Ivory Game’ comes a new and powerful documentary.

Rescue, rehabilitating and releasing orangutans is no easy feat, it requires a hugely skilled and dedicated team. The footage we’ve captured speaks for itself. View this incredible content here.
