Each year, Defenders’ annual Wildlife Conservation Awards celebrate and honor lasting and exceptional commitments to wildlife conservation. We hope you’ll enjoy this recording of our 2021 virtual celebration, hosted by Jeff Corwin, which honored our shared commitment to conservation and celebrated special conservation heroes: Dr. Carl Safina, U.S. Sen. Tom Carper, Dr. Steven Monfort, and American Prairie Reserve.
Orangutans Going Wild!
On World Environment Day, seven more #Orangutans were released into the true wild! Releasing orangutans isn’t easy, as we faced many challenges along the way – but the dedication and tireless efforts of the TNBBBR Authority, the Central Kalimantan BKSDA, and our BOSF team, led to triumph!
