Absorbing knowledge from the natural world is the best natural education.

At Tanini Sepilok Hotel, I met several cute kittens. The hotel is on a small hill, where you can pick rambutan and papaya, and see dragon fruit... The best thing is that it is very close to Sepilok and Labuk Bay, so it is very convenient to see orangutans, sun bears, and proboscis monkeys. Sepilok is the largest orangutan ecological reserve in the world. I have seen rescuers feeding these orangutans by hand, calming their emotions, and telling us their stories. The biggest difference between proboscis monkeys and other monkeys is that the nose of adult males becomes larger and larger with age, and the final length is even 7-8 cm. Because of the bright red color, it looks like a red balloon hanging on the face from a distance. Because this big nose always hangs in front of the mouth, it sways, and when eating, it has to be tilted to one side. Observing animals up close and absorbing knowledge from the natural world is the best natural education.
