Orangutan Sandra made history before coming to the Center for Great Apes. Today, she spends her days exploring habitats, building nests, and enjoying life with Jethro by her side. 🦧 #SandraTheOrangutan #Orangutan #Sanctuary

Archie’s long calls echo through the sanctuary as he finds his voice. Still a young orangutan, he’s learning and practicing this natural behavior every day. A sign of growth, instinct, and confidence. 🦧 #Archie #Orangutan #SanctuaryLife #GreatApes @archieapes_

With renewed interest in Bubbles following the release of Michael, we wanted to share where he is today.
#Bubbles (43) has called @CFGA home for 21 years. His life centers on companionship, routine, enrichment, and the choices he makes each day with his chimp social group.
