KOTA KINABALU: Numerous orang utan nests can be seen on top of many trees in the Ulu Segama Forest Reserve, Lahad Datu. This clearly shows the presence of the primates in the forest reserve, something that would have been quite rare 10 years ago.

Sime Darby Foundation chairman Tun Musa Hitam said he was excited to see the nests as it showed their efforts to help the state government restore the degraded forest were yielding positive results.
