Reaching for the Canopy
About this book
Reaching for the Canopy is the remarkable story of a bold, groundbreaking initiative undertaken by Kylie Bullo and her and her colleagues at Perth Zoo – an initiative that many experts believed was doomed to failure – to return a zoo-born orangutan to the wild. It proves that the right blend of passion, compassion and hard work can achieve what many thought was impossible. And it brings new hope to those fighting to bring this magnificent creature back from the brink of extinction.
