With the recent sad passing of acclaimed primatologist Jane Goodall, humanity lost a precious connection to our natural world. In this interview Lee Cordner   meets a local friend of the primates, Fiona Kennedy, and hears of her experiences with orangutans. As a child she lived in Borneo, the orangutans’ native habitat, and saw first-hand how orphaned animals were kept in nappies and not raised to survive in the wild. She has since sponsored baby orangutans and seen them re-enter the jungle through the work of the Orangutan Care Centre. Fiona visited Indonesian Borneo earlier this year with another Kiama naturalist, Rachael Peedom of Bee Inspired. Fiona tells Lee about their jungle adventure and explains how we can all help the cause. Fiona is hosting a fundraiser for the  Orangutan Foundation  International Australia at Kiama Surf Club on 16th November 2025. This is part of KCR's morning program 7am-9am, of which Lee Cordner is the host on Thursdays. Recorded 16.10.25
