The discovery and confiscation of two orangutans at Thanh Canh restaurant comes from many complaints from foreign visitors when coming here.

At the same time, two more children are being brought to Indonesia from Saudi Arabia.
Orangutans only live in Indonesia and Malaysia. Like other big-tailed monkeys, they are close relatives to humans. It is estimated that there are only about 25 to 30 thousand orangutans surviving on Earth.
