SANDAKAN: Wildlife tourism has become the latest crowd-puller in the Sandakan district. Droves of foreign and domestic tourists visit the sanctuary to take a closer look at the unique animal with an unusually large nose. The conservation centre was built by the plantation owner, who found the monkeys living in the mangroves by the sea. Here, visitors can take a closer look at orang utans during their feeding times at 10am and 3pm every day. Workers at the conservation centre operated by the Sabah Wildlife Department place vegetables and bananas on a platform during those times.
