We provide a tour, especially for wildlife experience in Tanjung Puting National Park-Kalimantan Tengah

I am a tour organizer, especially for special interest on nature and wildlife. I will be happy to help you to arrange your trip, especially to Tanjung Puting National Park, Central Kalimantan. I am very happy for your plan to visit Tanjung Puting National Park. Let me to introduce the flagship species here, A great ape who live only in Asia (Sumatera and Borneo Island), Orangutans, Man of the Forest. The orangutan species that lives in Tanjung Puting National Park, Central Kalimantan is the Pongo pymaeus which in endemic to this island. According to IUCN, this species is endangeredand according to CITES it is classified into Appendix I which states that all flora and fauna which are extremely endangered may only be sold under very special circumstances. The orangutans’ (Pongo pygmaeus) habitat continues to vanish at an extremely high rate. Taking all of this into account, orangutan rehabilitation centres have been established as to ensure the survival of this animal. In our package, you can see orangutans in Tanjung Harapan Camp, Pondok Tanggui Camp and Camp Leakey, Pesalat reforestation, Sekonyer Village, observing wildlife around the river bank using boat. Proboscis monkey, long tail macaque and some birds are the list of animal you may see along the ride. Touching a black water river on Sungai Sekonyer Kanan and sleep overnight on boat. Actually, we face many challanges while running ecotourism here. As we know that illegal logging and paln oil plantation is the most threat of rainforest. We hope, ecotourism can provide some alternative livelihood for local people. One of them is kelotok, so that is why we prefer to use the kelotok owned by local people and operate by local people also. Sustainable ecotourism which involved the local people is a wise way to reach the main goal: conservation.

"While our eyes are often turned toward the canopy for Orangutans, the forest floor has its own mysterious guardians. Meet the Greater Coucal (Centropus sinensis).
Beyond its striking ruby-red eyes and deep, rhythmic call, this bird is a living symbol of the 'untouched' forest. In many cultures, they are seen as healers of the woods. But for us at Orangutan Applause, they are a reminder of the 'Integrity of the Forest'.
There is a famous folk belief that the Greater Coucal can "heal" its own broken bones using a secret oil or herb. This has unfortunately led to people hunting them for "traditional medicine."
A healthy population of Greater Coucals indicates a rich, diverse insect and small reptile population. The Coucal reminds us that the forest must remain whole—from the highest canopy to the deepest undergrowth—to sustain its magic.
Every species has its place. Every call has its meaning. 🧡

Maratua is: Meet the Maratua Bulbul
While most travelers head to the Maratua islands for the majestic whale shark, manta rays and sea turtles, the island’s terrestrial forests hold a secret that is just as captivating for nature enthusiasts: the Maratua Bulbul.
During my recent "famtrip" with the Indonesian Ecotourism Network, I had the privilege of spotting this feathered resident. At first glance, it resembles the common Black-headed Bulbul found on mainland Borneo. However, living in isolation on a coral-fringed island has made it special. Taxonomically, it is a fascinating case of island evolution—often cited as a distinct subspecies, Brachypodius atriceps hodiernus, endemic only to Maratua

Shadow of the Forest: A female Crestless Fireback
doesn't need to Groom.
While the males get all the attention for their bright orange rumps, the female Crestless Fireback (Lophura erythrophthalma) is a masterclass in subtle elegance. Covered in glossy, blue-black feathers, she’s the ultimate shadow of the Sundaic rainforest undergrowth.

This is the female Crestless Fireback. In a world where her mate is flashing bright colors to be seen, she has evolved to be invisible. Her solid black plumage—shimmering with a hidden metallic gloss—is her greatest survival tool.

The Red-Faced Fighter
The male Crestless Fireback doesn't need a crown. His bright red facial skin and deep purplish-black plumage are enough to command respect in the undergrowth. The Crestless Fireback is the definition of "elusive." While its cousin, the Crested Fireback, gets all the attention with its flashy head feathers, this species stays low, stays quiet, and stays hidden in the densest parts of the Bornean rainforest.
But don't let the beauty fool you—this is a survivor. They forage er, scratching out a living in a world that is shrinking every day. With their habitat disappearing at an alarming rate, we are losing a species before we even fully understand its secrets. Is a bird still there if no one is left to see it?
Nature’s "fire" is being put out. What happens when the last flame goes dark?

Giant of the Stream
The Stork-billed Kingfisher (Pelargopsis capensis) is a total powerhouse compared to its smaller cousins. It’s one of the largest kingfishers in the Borneo Island, and it has a "tough guy" reputation in the bird world.
With a neon-red bill and wings that look like they were dipped in turquoise ink, the Stork-billed Kingfisher is impossible to ignore. But that massive beak isn't just for show—it’s a precision tool for snagging fish, frogs, and even small rodents.
The Stork-billed Kingfisher is a master of the "long game." It can sit perfectly still for hours on a branch overhanging the water, watching for the tiniest ripple. When the moment comes, it doesn't just dive—it plunges.

Sepertinya pengumuman pergantian tahun baru akan ditunda. hujan lebat sekali. tapi, aroma harum bumbu2 bebakaran mengepul mengangkasa sejak sore tadi. Tuhan, jangan sampai Kau pecahkan renyah harapan2 mereka.
