	Kubah National Park was gazetted in 1989 and opened to the public in 1995 (Abu Bakar et al. 2021). The site is situated on a sandstone plateau, where three mountains, Gunung Serapi, Gunung Selang and Gunung Sendok, are found (STB n.d.). Hardened limestone formations have created numerous waterfalls. The park is mostly covered by mixed dipterocarp forest, but it also holds a wide diversity of palms and orchids (STB n.d.). It is estimated that more than 100 palm species are found in the park and surrounding forests (Abu Bakar et al. 2021). Animal species found here include the bearded pig, mouse deer, black hornbill and many species of amphibians and reptiles. One of the main attractions of the park is the presence of carnivorous pitcher plants. Also located within the park is the Matang Wildlife Centre, which is a large enclosed area of rainforest with captive animal facilities (Mohd Azlan, Pail & Silang 2015). Matang was established to conserve endangered species of wildlife in Sarawak, including orangutans, which are rehabilitated and released (Mohd Azlan, Pail & Silang 2015).

	The Matang Wildlife Centre (MWC) was established in 1998. The centre is within the tropical forest of Kubah National Park with a total area of approx. 2,200 ha. Since 1998, the function of orangutan and other wildlife rehabilitation activities have been carried out at the centre. The centre initially started with 4 orangutans transferred from Semenggoh Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre (SWC). Since then, all newly confiscated orangutans have been sent to Matang Wildlife Centre. To date, the centre has trained orangutans and released them to the forest area within the Kubah National Park. Only a few orangutans occasionally return back to the centre for supplementary food; the others have not returned, but signs of them (e.g. old nests) have been seen where they were released (Tisen & Silang 2016).

The Matang Wildlife Centre (MWC) was established in 1998. The centre is within the tropical forest of Kubah National Park with a total area of approx. 2,200 ha. Since 1998, the function of orangutan and other wildlife rehabilitation activities have been carried out at the centre. The centre initially started with 4 orangutans transferred from Semenggoh Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre (SWC). Since then, all newly confiscated orangutans have been sent to Matang Wildlife Centre. To date, the centre has trained orangutans and released them to the forest area within the Kubah National Park. Only a few orangutans occasionally return back to the centre for supplementary food; the others have not returned, but signs of them (e.g. old nests) have been seen where they were released (Tisen & Silang 2016).
