Fantastic to see my old village in #Sumatra using money I raised with friends and family to rebuild access to the village and support our community. 💚🫶

Donations to help can be made to PanEco.ch choosing flood disaster.

All the people in these photos are my friends and people my family lived beside during my work with #orangutans.

They have lost everything and I am doing all I can to raise awareness and funds for them.
Every bit helps

Human #nestbuilding all in the name of 🧪

Luckily my teachers 🦧 were the best!

Construction is not as easy as you think - got 5 minutes? Show me what you can do!

Analysis is well underway of thousands of hours of audio recordings of #orangutans!

Looking forward to sharing what we find as soon as we can. Watch this space!

For #primates stuck in the beginnings of an icy winter in the UK, here was my stunning view today while searching for #orangutans 🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧

There’s no doubt about it, my new #fieldsite is stunning. The #otters think so too 🌳🦦🦧💚

On first glance my new research site seemed small and then I tried to keep up with an orangutan 🦧

Anyone else following primates over mountains? 👏👏👏

Kicking off my second year of fieldwork for this postdoc with this handsome chat. The air rifle bullet wound under his left eye is a reminder of the threat these Sumatran orangutans are under due to habitat encroachment and fragmentation.
