The mode of transport could best be described as basic.But these eight young orangutans can hardly complain - as the purpose of their trip is to secure their survival.
Orphaned by Man's folly, they are unable to rely on their parents to teach them the ways of the animal world. So every day at the rescue center which is their home, they are wheeled into the forest to learn.
Gilly Lloyd, who runs the project for Borneo Orangutan Survival International, said: 'We keep them for up to eight years.
Most of them are found as orphaned babies and have to be totally rehabilitated with 24-hour care. Every day they go into the forest to learn how to be orangutans.
