We came back again before 3 pm. This was the first time I visited the Semenggoh Wildlife Centre - the sanctuary for a number indigenous endangered wildlife of Sarawak, especially Orang Utan and Hornbills. We still have some time to walk around the area since it was only 2:45 pm.
The crocodiles. And frankly speaking, they look like dummies and their eyes look like guli. The crocodiles very hor liau, cos can stay still like muppet. Pura-pura bodoh waiting for unsuspected victim? :P
This crocodile even more keng chau.. Open mouth big big buat apa ? I looked at it for several minutes and it maintained the same posture. Dunno he stayed that way for how long liao. Really siao siao..
Tristania Whiteana Myrtaceae or Selunsur Putih. Tree with white barks.
Time to see the Orang Utan. This is the few hundred metres nature jungle trail I took to see the Orang Utan. The photo below shows the nature trails with plankwalk.
There are several Orang Utans with "identities" in the Centre - they have names. The Orang Utans here are rehabilitated before they were sent back to the rainforest, which is their natural habitat. The Orang Utans and the other wildlife will roam around freely inside the rainforest, but will return back to the wildlife centre during feeding times. They are clever, aren't they? ;)
We managed to meet up with 2 Orang Utans that day. Daniel & another orang utan (can't remember his name).
This is Daniel. He was busy having fruits feast on the feeding platform.
The other younger Orang Utan (? name) grabbed one papaya and few bananas. Take note the bananas he carried in his mouth and the papaya on his right hand. He scared to have meal together with Daniel???p/s: I prefer watching the Orang Utan having their meals in Taiping Zoo :)

*jumping around like orangutan*
oops...
eee i don like orangutan...they r so icky 'x' and they hv fleas..wahaha
omg! did i see crocs?!?!? i think i musnt go near a croc for at least a year after i had croc meat at bangkok...they said the crocs can sniff out who have eaten meat of their fellow relatives before!
*CABUT*
I went to the Orang Utan sanctuary in Sabah last year for awhile, but missed the feeding time. only saw a couple of them Uncle Tan's wildlife camp way up high on the trees, which is better than nothing!
that croc is cooling off lah, they open mouth to "sweat" cos they no sweat glands and muz use mouth to radiate extra heat....
orang utans are still still primates eh, grab and run LOL
pink cotton,
wah.. last time u jump around like your dog, now u upgrade yourself liao to jump around like orang utan.. LOL
fleas? U give them a nice medicated bath loh... ;)
Aiyak.. i ate croc meat before also leh.. and go near croc as well.. nothing happen also :P
*touch wood*
may,
Yeah, I remember your post on Orang Utan :) Btw, u can watch orang utan having their meals too in Taiping Zoo (better & closer view too!!).
FF,
Hahaha... actually i know the reason why the croc open mouth big big, but I just want to make fun of the crocodiles.. LOL
Sometimes hoh, I guess u notice human do grab & run too... so those homo sapiens are in the same category as primates too :P
omg, i hate being fourth!! LOLOLOL, but being buaya not too bad, hor? Where's my Kolo Mee?
lb,
hahhaa.. not bad hoh becoming Bujang Senang <--- u know what is this, right? ;) (All Sarawakians know about Bujang Senang but I guess u know what issit as well..)
Your Kolo Mee..
is now on the way..
special delivery from the Mayau City :)
wow very nice photo and something really running wild! hahaha..
this remind me of your taiping zoo series, finish kah?
that buaya reminds me of someone... hmmmm.... *ponders*
I've seen an even bigger and older orang utan in Semenggoh.. but that was years ago.. I think probably 10 years ago. Hahahaha..
carcar,
Mmmm... I just remembered..
u like REPTILES!!!
How can I forget that? :P
so I presume u like crocodiles and alligators as well?
Wooo... Taiping Zoo series ah?
tak habis lagi..
somehow get stuck at series #13..
Will continue back again after I complete my Sarawak series :P
Lol... macam buat buku cerita pulak.. ada series :P
liljoy,
issit that someone?
pointing finger..
*wink* :)
lynxx,
10 years ago?
wah.. sudah manyak lama..
10 years ago u are still a primary school kids, right? :P
If im not mistaken hor, the act of crocodile open big big mouth equals to us humans having sun tan.. or something like dat la *LOL*
Daniel got nice auburn hair.. *hehe*
ahh.. yes, cooling off.. read the comment.. *paiseh*
these buaya sure got beautiful leathers oops i mean skins hehehehe ...
for the orang utans, were the area enclose or really the wild? if it's the wild, i wonder why others orang utans never appear?
butt,
sun tan pulak :P
LOL
auburn hair? kakkaka...
Daniel handsome or not? ;)
I feel like hugging the orang utan, but I don't dare to do so leh... :P
slurp,
kekke..beautiful wallet and beautiful belt? LOL
That is the Forest Reserve.
Most of the older & more independent Orang Utan will search for their own food in the Forest. There are several Orang Utans there but not only few will come back during feeding time, unless if they can't find food :)
U can get more info regarding Semenggoh Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre on this website.
Actually, the game park should have come up with more creative ways to make feeding time more exciting.
First, they could let the Orang utan feast all they want. Well fed and too lazy to walk, the park rangers then carry them off to be fed to the crocs.
This would be really exciting for the visitors. Hahahahaha!!!!
Just a thot... if u let ah boy go near Daniel, what will he do? (Ah Boy lah I mean) :P
Bujang Senang? Which bahagian is senang? *blur*
LOL@LBujang Senang....
Acherly, isn't someone else here the original Bujang Senang? I mean, air tenang jangan disangka tiada....
Wah wah...
When doc doc want to bring boy boy to go ah???
*blink blink*
haahhahahahahhahah~! everybodi` the one having fruit feast is not daniel` its actually loktor chen` hahahahahah! yeah` you all have been deceived` hahahahahaha
:)
LOL at a^ben's comment...
Is the buayas real?? Since you said they can stay still like that for so long...
And where are the hornbills?
How close did u get to the orang utans? and did you stay for the croc's feeding time? That would be awesome.
Yeah, 10 years ago I was still in primary school. Used to follow my mum to her school field trip. SMB Kuching High's Kelab Pengguna.. hehhehe I still remember it quite well.
SA,
Hehhee.. of course there’s a fence separating me from the buaya. LOL, or else I won’t dare to go near them :P
Previously my uncle had a small crocodile, but one night the little crocodile escape.. U can imagine the havoc caused… My aunty & cousins lived in “fear” for the next couple of days… :P
I don’t wanna eat anything near Daniel, not only banana :P
cocka,
walao... what a suggestion..
*pengsan 100 times*
I guess it sounds better if we throw the ayam jantan instead to feed the croc? Hhahahaha…
angel,
If I let Ah Boy go near Daniel....
Mmmmm…
Either he will bark at Daniel..
Or..
Daniel will keep him as pet
LOL
Bujang Senang ah?
Every portion of the body also senang lah.. Croc mah.. of course senang.. :D
plink,
wah… from Bujang Senang to LBujang Senang pulak..
so LB is proven to be croc liao? Hahaa
That "original" Bujang Senang ah?
Siapa siapa?
Point point finger..
Is that the person?
*wink*
zeroimpact,
when boy boy wanna go Sarawak?
Or u can ask Pink Cotton jie jie to bring u there too :P
But one thing hoh,
don’t eat lollipop while looking at the orang utan.. Later orang utan grab your lollipop ;)
ben,
aiyoh.. this si kia Ah Ben…
haven’t scold u SCP for long time liao.. now is the time to scold u SCP again..
LOLOLOL
day dreamer,
Those are dumb buaya…
Tat's why stay so still for so long :P
Hornbills ah.. I didn’t go & explore further lah..
cos too tired liao..
Spent the whole afternoon under the hot sun earlier on in Bidayuh Village.. after seeing the orang utan, we left terus :D
agus,
The distance was quite far away..
I used the optical zoom 10x to take the photo of the orang utan :)
I prefer seeing the Orang Utan having meals in Taiping Zoo instead (nearer & closer)
Didn’t ask what is the feeding time for the croc there…
I heard Jong’s Crocodile Farm is the better place to view the crocodiles and they have fixed feeding time there.. But I didn’t pay that place a visit..
Instead I visited the Bidayuh Village nearby - ;)
Will post on that later :D
lynx,
10 years ago.. I was in uni – my fourth year :P
