Soft Cover. Condizione: Fine. Reprint. During the 1950s, the Sarawak house of Barbara Harrisson and her late husband Tom became a home for orphaned baby orang-utan who had been found helpless in the jungle. Here, she describes her experiences rearing orang-utan in a half-wild state and her attempt to re-educate them to jungle life. The Harrissons decided eventually that their partially domesticated animals would have great difficulty surviving in the wild--yet keeping full-sized orang-utans in the home was no more practical. This personal account of the joys and trials of raising orang-utan is both informative and delightful reading. First published 1962. xx, 217 pp., 30 b&w plates, index. New/unread copy in original shrinkwrap. Size: 20 x 13 cm.
