How Orangutans Reforest the Jungle

This short film reveals how the orangutan, whose name means person of the forest, quietly rebuilds the jungle around it. In the rainforests of Sumatra, these intelligent apes build nests, spread seeds and help the forest regenerate with every move. The footage captures one of nature's smartest species going about its daily life. It shows how a single animal can act as an engineer of an entire ecosystem. It is a brief but eye-opening look at the orangutan's hidden role. Free to stream in 4K on Dr Documentary.
