Meet Joyce: International Animal Rescue
Urban Bar is proud to have adopted Joyce, and orangutan in Borneo. She was only a few months old when she was taken from her mother, and then kept as a pet for nearly a year.
Joyce now lives in the Orangutan Rescue and Rehabilitation Centre, Ketapang, West Kalimantan, Borneo. Joyce underwent a rehabilitation program to ensure she could adjust from the unnatural environment of being kept as a pet, and now enjoys living in a forest with her soul mate Gunung in the Orangutan Rescue Centre.
