About this listen
In this episode of the Wild Systems Podcast, we travel into the Leuser Ecosystem of northern Sumatra, one of the last strongholds for critically endangered Sumatran orangutans. We follow a young female orangutan and a smallholder farmer as they navigate a forest squeezed by palm oil, roads, and the slow heat of climate change. Along the way, we explore how conservation teams are trying to keep the canopy connected, what happens when wildness survives in fragments, and what it really means for an orangutan built for trees to live in a landscape increasingly shaped by human hands.
