TO GO WITH AFP STORY INDONESIA-ENVIRONMENT-CONSERVATION-SPECIES-ORANGUTAN BY ANGELA DEWAN In this photograph taken on April 8, 2013, a rescued baby male Sumatran orangutan, named "Gokong Puntung" after the Chinese monkey God, whose mother was beaten up by poachers, learns to climb tree branches at the quarantine centre of Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Programme in Sibolangit district located in Indonesia's Sumatra island where orangutans rescued from palm oil plantations, poachers and pet owners undergo rehabilitation before they are reintroduced in the forests. Alarm is growing at a plan that would open up new swathes of forest on Sumatra island to mining, palm oil and paper companies, which could put orangutans and other critically endangered species at even greater risk.
