Indonesia Orangutan

Veterinarians and volunteers tend to a female orangutan they named 'Hope' on March 17, 2019, after conducting a surgery to remove dozens of air-rifle pellets from its body, at a facility run by at the Sumatra Orangutan Conservation Programme in Sibolangit, North Sumatra, Indonesia. A veterinarian says the endangered orangutan that had a young baby has gone blind after being shot at least 74 times, including six in the eyes, with air gun. The baby orangutan died from malnutrition last Friday as rescuers rushed the two to the facility. (AP Photo/Binsar Bakkara)
