The following text is for questions 17 to 22.It was early in the moming when five staff of the charity Intemational Animal Rescue (IAR)
arrived at the forest. The forest was hazy with smoke. They breathed through cloth masks as they
searched for a dehydrated--and possibly dying-orangutan and her infant seen the previous
night
. A farmer reported seeing the mother and daughter orangutans near a palm oil farm which
was on fire.
After several hours searching through the haze, they finally found the pair. They used anes-
thetics and medical check-ups to determine if the two orangutans could survive in a safe zone
away from the fires. These orangutans were lucky because IAR got them before the smoke
caused too much damage. The team took them to a safe zone on the island.
