He hadn't been seen in over three months. Then, Casanova — the alpha male of Gunung Leuser National Park — reappeared. What followed was something we never expected to witness in the wild.

Filmed inside Gunung Leuser National Park, North Sumatra, Indonesia — one of the last places on earth where wild orangutans still roam free.

None of this would have been possible without Lucy and Randy — our guides and a required part of entering Gunung Leuser National Park. They knew Casanova personally. We were not only in good hands, but derived tremendous joy from their company.
