🍃Dream visit to the Jungle🍃

For these children it has been a dream for a long time to visit the jungle. Although they live in communities around the Gunung Leuser National Park they have never had the opportunity to visit the jungle.
We have been teaching these children English for several years and our Youth Ranger Program for around 6 months now. Recently the kids began requesting a trip to the jungle.
On Sunday that wish came true! We organised transport for the children from their respective villages to Batu Katak, right next to the Leuser ecosystem. Here, our wonderful Ranger team and teacher escorted the kids into the limestone forest and into one of the caves. They planted some fruit trees to provide a future source of food for wildlife and had a well deserved swim in the river.
Thank you to the local Stay Wild team and other people who helped on the day to make this happen☺️ Thank you to @sarahgrantwang from @darwinanimaldoctors for coaching our team on how to teach the Youth Ranger Program 🙏 and @a_piggys_tale for supporting this initiative.
Thank you to our sponsors @ballaratwildlifepark and A Seed Of Change

Been taking so much time post-surgery at vets, monitoring recovery, testing to make sure the mast cell tumor won’t come back, etc. But the brothers reclaim time together whenever they can! Piggy appreciates family and he appreciates his friends! Piggy’s GoFundMe link for his post surgery and ongoing lymphoma care is here and in the bio!

We’re saving sun bears! Our amazing Indonesian partner @iscp_sumatra is expanding our collaborative rescue range, and increasing the diversity of wildlife we can save together, like this sun bear cub! Here ISCP is donating supplies and training materials for sun bear rehabilitation to the BKSDA, the Indonesian wildlife authority, after the collaboration was able to save the cub from wildlife trafficking.
