    "Ogel" is an orangutan orphan. He lost his family and home through the rampant deforestation of the tropical rain forests of Borneo for the establishment of palm oil plantations. He is being taken care of by Orangutan Foundation International, where he lives in their Orangutan Care Center and Quarantine. He is a true refugee from man's greed and destruction. When "Ogel" looked into my lens, I could feel his loss and confusion, and it broke my heart.
