OWI AND LIANA PLANT
Finally, Own played by himself. Apparently, his followers weren’t always near him. Owi who had a loyal follower named Bonti, had to learn independently. It’s because Bonti was busy exploring his forest school class.
Owi grabed Liana plant. Liana that hanging in the forest school of COP Borneo area is a mainstay for orangutan to climb, hang, and move from one big tree to another tree. The movements of little orangutans are so agile and the animal keepers must be more alert when they are busy playing with this Liana plant. The exploration of little orangutans know no time.
“Owi, be careful!”, Simon shouted. Owi turned around for a moment, looked at Samson (animal keeper) and continued to climb. Simson’s tasks will be even harder. Following Owi’s movement and having to get ready when Owi refused to go down. That’s right, every animal keeper in COP Borneo orangutan rehabilitation centre must have the ability to climb also. “We are far behind when it comes to climb compares to orangutans. Sometimes I feel these little orangutas mocked us because of our slowness. But I am happy, they are indeed have to be better.”, he added.(SAR)
OWI DAN TANAMAN LIANA
Akhirnya Owi pun bermain sendirian. Ternyata tak selamanya para pengikut itu selalu berada di dekatnya. Owi yang mempunyai pengikut sejati bernama Bonti akhirnya harus belajar mandiri. Karena Bonti juga sekarang lebih sibuk dengan mengeksplore kelas sekolah hutannya.
Owi meraih tanaman Liana. Liana yang bergelantungan di sekolah hutan COP Borneo memang menjadi andalan para orangutan untuk memanjat, bergelantungan dan berpindah dari satu pohon besar ke pohon yang lain. Pergerakan orangutan-orangutan kecilnya sangat lincah, dan para animal keeper harus lebih waspada saat meraka sudah asik dengan tanaman Liana ini. Karena penjelajahan orangutan kecil ini tak mengenal waktu.
“Owi! Hati-hati ya!”, begitu teriak Simson. Owi pun berbalik sesaat, menatap Simson (animal keeper) dan kembali memanjat. Tugas Simson akan semakin berat. Mengikuti perpindahan Owi dan harus bersiap saat Owi tak mau turun. Benar, setiap animal keeper di pusat rehabilitasi orangutan COP Borneo juga harus bisa memanjat. “Kita sih kalah jauh kalau urusan memanjat dibandingkan orangutan. Kadang juga merasa diejek orangutan-orangutan kecil ini karena kelambatan kita. Tapi senang, mereka memang harus lebih jago.”, tambahnya lagi.
