An orangutan mother is examined by rescuers after being tranquilized then falling from a tree into a net whilst clutching her baby in Sumatra, Indonesia.
A baby orangutan screams with fear as a charity worker plucks him to safety from imminent death.
The emaciated baby and his mother had become terrified of humans after palm oil workers bulldozed their habitat.
