Superb Sanctuary for orangutans in Sepilok!

Visit Sepilok Orang Utan Sanctuary for up close viewings of these amazing animals! Come for feeding time at the platform (10am) or go to the nursery (9am) and sit in an air conditioned room whilst seeing orang utans of all ages and sizes! You can fit both in timewise too! The feeding is optional for the orang utans as the centre is in the rainforest with no boundaries. It is used as a training centre for orphaned young orang utans. Bring a camera, water and spend all the time available here (open till 12noon for morning session). Lots of people leave after the 10am feeding but you can see them for as long as the place is open as there's lots of food for them. A thing not to miss!

Great

Beautiful place, well looked after animals.

When Sabah became an independent state in Malaysia in 1963, a Game Branch was created in the Forest Department for the conservation of wild animals in the region. Consequently, 43 sq km of protected land at the edge of Kabili Sepilok Forest Reserve was turned into a rehabilitation site for orangutans and this is where Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre is located. Today around 60 to 80 orangutans are living independently in the reserve and approximately 25 orphaned orangutans are housed in the nurseries#sepilok #sandakan

Short Vacay At Sepilok

Having fun seeing the monkeys that we only can see at Sepilok Sandakan. it was an awsome experince. If you wanna come here have to check on the monkey feeding timetable so you will be able to see the monkey. need to put on your sport shoes to come here, cuz its a far walking into the jungle. also need to be quite while the feeding session, cuz the monkey is afraid of strange noise and they might scared and not come to the feeding place. however its a fun experince. we come during the after pendemic, so the cafeteria is not available yet, so ear first before you come to visit. cuz no food allowed in the jungle ya.
