Gibbon Rehabilitation Project Phuket
Gibbons, apes known for their speed and distinctive singing, were wiped out through poaching by 1980s on Thailand’s popular Phuket island. Now they are making a comeback through WARF’s Gibbon Rehabilitation Project. Our Absolute Ambassadors and Guest volunteers helped out with their volunteer programme. For more information about the programme and how you could help visit .

Phuket Gibbon Rehabilitation Project - Tam
Tam is a gibbon at the Phuket Gibbon Rehabilitation Project in the forest near Bang Pae waterfall. Tam cannot be released into the wild as she has only one hand and one foot. Her owner had beaten her so much that a foot and hand needed amputation. Poor gibbon.

7. SOUNDBITE (English) Susannah Waters, Gibbon Rehabilitation Project Volunteer:
This gibbon here is Tam, and she used to be a pet, and she is a great example of why gibbons are unsuitable pets, because she got to an age when she was starting to become a bit unpredictable. They reach sexual maturity, they get big canine teeth, and quite strong. She went to bite her owner's child, and her owner retaliated quite severely, beat her up really badly, and the wounds got infected, so she needed to have amputations halfway along her right arm and left leg as well. And she's also lost most of the fingers on her left hand as well. So obviously she would never be able to be released. She wouldn't survive out in the wild.

11. SOUNDBITE (Thai) Owart Maprang, Ecological Science Manager, Gibbon Rehabilitation Project:
When we check the gibbons' health, we check their faeces, their fur, and their eyes to see that they can see normally. We also check their arms and legs to see if there are any cuts or anything abnormal. We look at their movements to see that they can move normally. For the female gibbons, we check their genitals to see if they are pregnant or if they are menstruating.

LEAD-IN:
Twenty-five years ago, gibbons on the island of Phuket in southern Thailand were poached to extinction.
The animals were captured to supply the overseas pet trade, for their meat, and to wean dollars from tourists.
The Gibbon Rehabilitation Project is now helping to bring the local population back from the brink.
STORYLINE:
Every morning the area surrounding Khao Phra Taew National Park on the island of Phuket in Thailand echoes with the beautiful and distinct sounds of gibbons singing to one other.
But for many years, the animals' calls were simply not heard here.
In the 1970s and 80s gibbons were hunted to extinction in Phuket. They had become prized as pets around the world and for traditional food and medicine.
Susannah Waters is a volunteer from Australia.
