A male orangutan named Aan was found, dying, with 104 bullets lodged all over his
body in Pangkalan Bun, Central Kalimantan.
When scanning the ape, doctors from the Orangutan Foundation found 37 bullets in
his head and 67 others in his body, including in his heart and lungs. The doctors
predicted that Aan was also suffering from infections derived from the wounds,
tempo.co reported on Wednesday.
Zulfiqri, a doctor treating Aan, said that the infections may have caused his death.
The bullets caused vision and hearing impairments. “His left eye is blind already,” he
said.
A rescue team from the foundation and the Central Kalimantan Natural Resources
Conservation Agency found Aan severely wounded on Oct. 10 in a palm oil
plantation.
The foundation said that it would remove the bullets soon. Should the ape survive
the operation, he will be released to Sungai Lamandu nature conservatory in Central
Kalimantan. (cor)

In November 2011, for instance, two Indonesian plantation
workers in Borneo were arrested after killing "at least 20
endangered orangutans and proboscis monkeys as a means of
pest control for landowners looking to protect their crops," the
Associated Press reports.
The men said they had "chased down the primates with dogs,"
before shooting, stabbing or hacking them to death with
machetes. They allegedly told authorities that "the owners of
several palm oil plantations on Borneo island [had] offered $100
for every orangutan killed and $20 for every long-nosed
proboscis monkey."
According to Orangutan.org, both species of orangutans left in
the wild are in severe decline and are threatened with extinction.
