Semenggoh Wildlife Centre is a haven for orangutans and other indigenous species, attracting visitors with its conservation efforts and natural beauty.
Semenggoh Wildlife Centre, located in the lush rainforests of Sarawak, Malaysia, serves as a sanctuary primarily for orangutans. It was initially established in 1975 as a place to care for wild animals who were injured, orphaned, or rescued from captivity. Over the years, it has become a premier conservation area where visitors can observe orangutans roaming freely in their natural habitat. Besides orangutans, the centre is home to a variety of flora and fauna native to Malaysian Borneo, providing a critical habitat for biodiversity. The site not only focuses on the rehabilitation of wildlife but also plays a vital role in educating the public on the importance of wildlife preservation. The landscape is characterized by dense tropical rainforest, providing an immersive experience for nature enthusiasts. Visitors can enjoy guided treks through the center, gaining insights into the efforts made to rehabilitate and reintegrate these intelligent creatures into the wild. The centre is also equipped with a botanical research station and offers numerous opportunities for wildlife photography.
