Eight orangutans have been released into the wild in Borneo after being rescued from intense wildfires.
Three mothers, their three daughters and two adult males were freed in a reserve in the west of the island on Friday.
Indonesian wildlife authorities rescued 46 of the apes, which are critically endangered, before fires tore through their habitat in August and September.
