Sussex wildlife charity uses drones to monitor threatened orangutans in rainforest

Conservationists from Sussex want to use drone technology to help save orangutans from extinction. International Animal Rescue, based in Uckfield, has a rescue centre in Borneo for the great apes.

Now, it's planning to use drones to track the orangutans when they're released back into the wild, to monitor how well they're coping.
