A lot of focus recently has been on The Great Orangutan Project which is based at Matang Wildlife Centre in Malaysian Borneo. We have been showing you what fantastic work volunteers get up to on this project and sharing some lovely stories, including the recent rescue of a sun bear and the successful release of a slow loris.

Today, however, we have been sent some reviews from some of the volunteers who are currently on The Great Orangutan Project and we thought it would be great to share them with you. So enough from me and over to them!
