A field study on social behaviour, feeding regime and health status in semi-captive and free-ranging Orang Utans (Pongo pygmaeus) undergoing rehabilitation programme by A. B., Salina, N. B., Salim, Abdullah, Rasedee, Senthilvel, K. S. S. N.

“…The study was conducted at the Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre (OURC) in Sabah and the Wildlife Centre (WC) in Sarawak with a population of 43 and 10 orangutans respectively. The result showed that both semicaptive and free-ranging orangutans spent 30.7% of their daytime climbing, 28.4% swinging, 24.3% playing and 16.6% resting. …”

Ape conservation physiology: fecal glucocorticoid responses in wild Pongo pygmaeus morio following human visitation. by Michael P Muehlenbein, Marc Ancrenaz, Rosman Sakong, Laurentius Ambu, Sean Prall, Grace Fuller, Mary Ann Raghanti

“…Utilizing fecal samples (N = 53) from 2 wild habituated orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus morio) (in addition to 26 fecal samples from 4 wild unhabituated orangutans) in the Lower Kinabatangan Wildlife Sanctuary of Sabah, Malaysian Borneo, we predicted that i) fecal glucocorticoid metabolite concentrations would be elevated on the day after tourist visitation (indicative of normal stress response to exposure to tourists on the previous day) compared to samples taken before or during tourist visitation in wild, habituated orangutans, and ii) that samples collected from habituated animals would have lower fecal glucocorticoid metabolites than unhabituated animals not used for tourism. …”

Morphological differences in the calcaneus among extant great apes investigated by three-dimensional geometric morphometrics by Shuhei Nozaki, Hideki Amano, Motoharu Oishi, Naomichi Ogihara

“…However, morphological variations in the calcaneus of the great apes (chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans) have not been sufficiently studied. This study aims to clarify variations in calcaneal morphology among great apes based on three-dimensional geometric morphometrics. …”

Talar trochlear morphology may not be a good skeletal indicator of locomotor behavior in humans and great apes by Shuhei Nozaki, Motoharu Oishi, Naomichi Ogihara

“…The apical angles in gorillas and orangutans were significantly greater than those in humans and chimpanzees, but no statistical difference was observed between humans and chimpanzees, indicating that the apical angle did not necessarily correspond with the degree of arboreality in hominoids. …”
