In a degrading spectacle put on for tourists, Nenuah the orangutan was one of many apes who, 16 years ago, was forced put on boxing gloves and fight each other. But this weekend she was released into the wild as one of ten of the endangered great apes being allowed their freedom in the forests of Borneo. All of the apes, like Nenuah, had been rescued from cruel or inhumane activity and looked after at a rehabilitation centre. However, releases into the wild have been held up over the last year by COVID-19, as the great apes are feared to be susceptible to the coronavirus.
