  • FORINA - Forum Konservasi Orangutan Indonesia

    Selamat datang di FORINA, Forum Konservasi Orangutan Indonesia, sebuah platform yang didedikasikan untuk melindungi dan melestarikan orangutan serta habitatnya melalui sinergi dan kolaborasi dalam kerja konservasi. Connecting People, Protecting The Orangutans At FORINA, we bring together a diverse mix of voices—from communities and government to businesses, academics, and NGOs—all focused on one shared goal: protecting orangutans and the forests that are their home. Since 2009, we’ve been creating a space for collaboration, where we can exchange knowledge, ideas, and conservation strategies that make a real difference. We believe that protecting orangutans is most powerful when we work together, with open minds, a spirit of participation, and mutual support. From raising awareness to advocating for policies that prioritize conservation, we committed to driving action that truly matters. Because every effort, no matter how small, contributes to a brighter future for orangutans and the forests of Indonesia More About Us Mission Statement FORINA is committed to advancing orangutan conservation in Indonesia through awareness campaigns, policy advocacy, and continuous support. We bring together communities, government, businesses, and educational institutions to ensure the survival of orangutans and the long-term health of Indonesia’s environment. Together, we aim to build a future where both people and wildlife thrive, united in our mission to protect orangutans and their habitats for generations to come. Orangutan Fact Orangutans in Indonesia are protected under Law No. 32 of 2024 and Government Regulation No. 106. >78% of Orangutan Habitat Lies Outside Conservation Areas This means that most of the forests where orangutans live are not within officially protected areas such as national parks or wildlife reserves. As a result, these habitats are more vulnerable to land conversion, logging, and other human activities that threaten orangutans’ survival. Expanding protection is crucial to ensuring the safety of their habitat. 13710 Sumatran 760 Tapanuli 57360 Bornean Empowering Action for Orangutans Orangutans can’t speak for themselves — but we can be their voice. At FORINA, conservation is more than a cause — it’s a shared movement. We bring together voices from all walks of life: researchers, local communities, businesses, governments, and young people just beginning to care. Built on the power of collaboration, FORINA believes that protecting orangutans is something no one can do alone. Since 2009, we’ve created space for connection and growth — shaping strategies, sharing solutions, and driving real, on-the-ground action. It’s not just about saving a species — it’s about keeping forests alive, for orangutans and for all of us.

    Egretta Chocolate Silahkan buka halaman situs web ini pada ponsel anda. Anda Baru Saja Terhubung dengan Rumah Orangutan Anda Baru Saja Menyentuh Sebuah Lanskap Terima kasih sudah memindai kode ini. Cokelat yang Anda pegang tumbuh di Mahakam Hulu, Kalimantan Timur. Di lanskap yang sama, jauh di atas tanah, di antara cabang dan daun, hidup Orangutan Kalimantan. Setiap sore, mereka menyusun sarang baru dari ranting dan daun. Setiap musim buah, mereka berpindah mengikuti pohon yang berbuah. Induk orangutan akan menggendong, mengajari, dan menjaga anaknya selama bertahun-tahun sebelum ia siap hidup sendiri. Semua itu terjadi di kanopi hutan yang mungkin belum pernah Anda lihat, tetapi kini Anda terhubung dengannya. Orangutan adalah primata arboreal terbesar di dunia dan satu-satunya kera besar yang hidup alami di Asia. Kerabat dekatnya, gorila, simpanse, dan bonobo, hanya ditemukan di Afrika. Di Indonesia terdapat tiga spesies orangutan, yaitu Orangutan Kalimantan, Orangutan Sumatra, dan Orangutan Tapanuli. Sebagian besar hidupnya berlangsung di atas kanopi hutan, tempat mereka bergerak dari pohon ke pohon dan membangun sarang baru hampir setiap malam. Sekitar 60 hingga 70 persen makanan orangutan berasal dari buah, dilengkapi daun muda, bunga, kulit kayu, dan serangga. Ketergantungan yang tinggi pada hutan membuat mereka sangat sensitif terhadap perubahan lanskap. Saat ini populasi orangutan menghadapi tekanan besar akibat deforestasi, fragmentasi habitat, kebakaran hutan, serta perburuan dan perdagangan ilegal. Dengan siklus reproduksi yang sangat lambat, dimana individu betina melahirkan hanya setiap enam hingga delapan tahun, kehilangan satu individu saja dapat memengaruhi masa depan populasi dalam jangka panjang. Orangutan dan Hutan yang Saling Menjaga Orangutan bukan sekadar penghuni hutan. Mereka bagian dari proses yang membuat hutan tetap hidup. Biji yang mereka jatuhkan tumbuh menjadi pohon. Pohon yang tumbuh menyediakan pakan dan tempat bersarang. Siklus itu berlangsung pelan, alami, dan saling terkait. Ritme hidup orangutan juga pelan. Induk orangutan melahirkan sekitar setiap enam sampai delapan tahun. Setiap individu berarti. Setiap kehilangan membutuhkan waktu lama untuk pulih. Menurut International Union for Conservation of Nature, seluruh jenis orangutan berstatus Critically Endangered (Kritis). Tekanan terbesar datang dari perubahan dan penyusutan habitat. Ketika hutan berubah, masa depan merekapun ikut berubah. Saat Hutan Terpecah Hutan tidak selalu hilang dalam satu waktu. Ia sering terbelah perlahan, menjadi bagian-bagian kecil yang terpisah. Bagi orangutan, jarak yang terbuka di antara petak hutan bukan sekadar ruang kosong. Itu adalah batas yang sulit dilalui. Pergerakan mencari pakan menjadi lebih jauh. Kesempatan bertemu pasangan menjadi lebih kecil. Kelompok kecil menjadi lebih rentan terhadap gangguan. Dalam jangka panjang, fragmentasi melemahkan daya tahan populasi. Yang dibutuhkan bukan hanya hutan yang tersisa, tetapi hutan yang saling terhubung. Upaya Menjaga Lanskap Tetap Terhubung Di Mahakam Hulu, sebagian masyarakat mengembangkan sistem agroforestry kakao di bawah naungan pohon. Lahan dikelola tanpa membuka hutan alam, menjaga struktur vegetasi tetap berdiri. Kolaborasi FORINA dan Egretta mendukung pendekatan ini sebagai bagian dari strategi konservasi berbasis lanskap. Penghidupan diperkuat, tutupan pohon dipertahankan, dan tekanan terhadap habitat dapat ditekan. Konservasi tidak terjadi di ruang terpisah dari kehidupan sehari-hari. Ia hadir dalam cara lahan dikelola, dalam keputusan produksi, dan dalam pilihan yang kita buat. Anda Bagian dari Rantai yang Lebih Besar Produk yang Anda nikmati terhubung dengan sistem pengelolaan lanskap. Sistem itu menentukan apakah pohon tetap berdiri dan apakah orangutan masih memiliki ruang untuk bergerak. Masa depan orangutan dibentuk oleh banyak keputusan kecil yang terjadi setiap hari, di banyak tempat. Di kanopi hutan, sarang baru akan kembali dibangun malam ini. Harapannya sederhana, agar pohon yang menopangnya tetap ada. Terima kasih telah meluangkan waktu untuk mengenalnya lebih dekat.

  • Orangutan di Indonesia | FORINA

    Orangutans are the only great apes in Asia. Their closest relatives—chimpanzees, gorillas, and bonobos—are found in Africa. In Indonesia, orangutans are protected under Law No. 32 of 2024 and Regulation P.106/MENLHK/SETJEN/KUM.1/12/2018 on Protected Plant and Animal Species. Globally, they are listed as Critically Endangered by the IUCN due to threats like poaching, illegal trade, habitat loss, and human-wildlife conflict. CITES also lists them in Appendix I, prohibiting any form of trade. Indonesia is home to three species: • Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abelii ) • Tapanuli orangutan (Pongo tapanuliensis) • Bornean orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus ) According to the 2016 PHVA analysis, only around 71,820 orangutans remain in the wild across Sumatra and Borneo, spread over 51 metapopulations within 17.5 million hectares. • About 57,350 Bornean orangutans live in 16 million hectares, mostly P. p. wurmbii (38,200 individuals) • Around 14,470 orangutans are found in Sumatra Orangutans are crucial to the health of tropical forests. As large fruit eaters, they help regenerate forests by dispersing seeds through their droppings. This makes them an umbrella species — protecting orangutans also safeguards countless other species and the ecosystems they live in. Protecting orangutans means preserving biodiversity and the delicate balance of tropical forests — for wildlife, for nature, and for future generations. Sumatran Orangutan (Pongo Abelii) The Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abelii) is known for its smaller build and brighter, orange-brown hair compared to its Bornean relative. Locally called mawas or maweh, this species can weigh up to 90 kilograms and is found from northern Sumatra to the western area of Lake Toba, including reintroduced populations in the Bukit Tigapuluh landscape. Primarily frugivorous, the Sumatran orangutan benefits from Sumatra’s longer fruiting seasons, which provide abundant food year-round. As a highly arboreal species, it spends most of its life in the treetops—feeding, nesting, and sleeping in the forest canopy. Tapanuli Orangutan (Pongo tapanuliensis) The Tapanuli orangutan was once thought to be a population of Sumatran orangutans, until genetic studies revealed a surprising connection: the females in Batang Toru are more closely related to Bornean orangutans. This discovery led to the formal recognition of the Tapanuli orangutan (Pongo tapanuliensis ) as a distinct species in 2017. Found only in the Batang Toru Ecosystem of North Sumatra, this critically endangered species inhabits a limited and fragmented area of around 132,000 hectares. Habitat loss and fragmentation—driven by both natural and human factors—pose serious threats to its survival. With fewer than 800 individuals remaining in the wild, the Tapanuli orangutan is one of the rarest and most threatened great apes on Earth. Bornean Orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) Genetic studies have identified three distinct subspecies of Bornean orangutans: Pongo pygmaeus pygmaeus lives north of the Kapuas River in West Kalimantan and into northeastern Sarawak (Malaysia). Pongo pygmaeus wurmbii ranges from south of the Kapuas River (West Kalimantan) to the eastern side of the Barito River (Central Kalimantan). Pongo pygmaeus morio is found from Sabah (Malaysia) down to the Mahakam River in East Kalimantan. Among them, P. p. wurmbii is the largest in size, while P. p. morio is the smallest. Across Borneo, orangutans are known by many local names—such as hirang, kuyang, maias, kahiyu, kisau, and ulang—reflecting the cultural connection between communities and this iconic species.
