Become Wallis' Foster Parent Description
|
For a $75 contribution, you will receive a foster parent kit which includes a photograph of your adoptee, a certificate, an orangutan activity booklet, stickers, a current issue of Pongo Quest, and other items. You will also receive newsletters which include information on the work that OFI is doing in Borneo.
Name: Wallis
Sex: Female
Arrived at centre: 6th July
Previous History: Unknown
Care centre: Pangkalan Bun, Borneo
Wallis came from Kumai, but little else is known of her past, which suggests she may have been confiscated from being kept illegally by someone. Wallis likes her early morning climb in the trees each day to keep up her fitness levels and to be able to graduate from the smaller forest area with her new skills she learns from her other friends who may be a bit older than her. She loves her activity, however when it all gets a bit much, she needs her rest, which usually involves a good afternoon nap (as well as her morning and midday naps!). Believe it or not, Wallis’ caregivers say she is naughty! You cannot believe it when you see this sweet faced, big-eyed little girl in the forest but apparently there is a mischievous glint in those eyes!
The care of each infant costs approximately $2,000 a year and OFI's Care Center receives dozens of new babies every year. Your $75 covers the cost of feeding Wallis for one month. In the beginning, each infant must be cared for 24 hours a day. Veterinarians and nurses conduct check-ups and attend to urgent medical problems. Medicines, vitamins, and quality food are needed. OFI's Orangutan Foster Parent Program helps ensure that funds are available for all this critically needed care. You may choose to support a specific orphaned infant or juvenile; however, because of how our program is organized, all the youngsters in our care benefit from your support. No orangutan in need is ever turned away.
