Story Transcript:

Id: Di tengah hutan Bukit Lawang, suara angin seolah menyapa setiap dedaunan.
En: In the middle of the hutan Bukit Lawang, the sound of the wind seemed to greet every leaf.

Id: Putri, seorang ahli biologi yang bersemangat, mengamati peta kasar di tangannya.
En: Putri, an enthusiastic biologist, observed the rough map in her hand.

Id: Dia berdiri di samping Adi dan Rina, dua sahabat yang selalu siap mengikutinya dalam petualangan liar.
En: She stood beside Adi and Rina, two friends who were always ready to accompany her on wild adventures.

Id: Matahari mengintip dari balik kanopi, menciptakan bayangan menari di tanah yang lembap.
En: The sun peeked from behind the canopy, creating dancing shadows on the damp ground.

Id: "Langit cerah, tapi kita harus tetap waspada," kata Putri sambil menyimpan peta ke dalam tasnya.
En: "The sky is clear, but we must stay alert," said Putri, while putting the map into her bag.

Id: "Aku tahu keluarga orangutan itu ada di suatu tempat di sini.
En: "I know the family of orangutans is somewhere around here."

Id: "Adi mengangguk, setuju.
En: Adi nodded in agreement.

Id: "Tapi kita harus mengikuti jalur utama, Putri.
En: "But we have to stick to the main path, Putri.

Id: Hutan ini bisa menyesatkan.
En: This forest can be deceiving."

Id: "Rina menambahkan, "Kita juga harus ingat bahwa hujan bisa datang tiba-tiba, meskipun sekarang musim kering.
En: Rina added, "We also have to remember that rain can come suddenly, even though it's the dry season now."

Id: "Putri memutuskan untuk memimpin kelompok keluar dari jalur utama.
En: Putri decided to lead the group off the main path.

Id: "Instingku mengatakan kita harus ke arah sini," katanya sambil menunjuk ke arah yang lebih lebat dan menantang.
En: "My instinct tells me we should go this way," she said, pointing towards a denser and more challenging direction.

Id: Mereka bertiga mulai mendaki lebih jauh ke dalam hutan.
En: The three of them began to hike deeper into the forest.

Id: Pohon-pohon besar menjulang tinggi di sekitar mereka, burung-burung berkicau keras dari atas.
En: Large trees towered around them, birds chirped loudly from above.

Id: Rina berjuang dengan akar yang menjalar di tanah, menahan pergelangan kakinya agar tidak terkilir.
En: Rina struggled with the roots sprawling on the ground, holding her ankle to prevent it from spraining.

Id: Adi, meski sedikit ragu, tetap percaya pada intuisi Putri.
En: Adi, although slightly hesitant, still trusted Putri's intuition.

Id: Berjam-jam mereka berjalan, menyusuri jalan kecil yang nyaris tak terlihat.
En: For hours they walked, following a barely visible small path.

Id: Putri mengabaikan rasa lelahnya, tekadnya semakin kuat untuk menemukan keluarga orangutan yang langka itu.
En: Putri ignored her fatigue, her determination growing stronger to find the rare orangutan family.

Id: Dan akhirnya, mereka melihatnya—seekor orangutan betina dengan bayi kecil di lengannya, bertengger di atas cabang yang tinggi.
En: And finally, they saw it—a female orangutan with a small baby in her arms, perched on a high branch.

Id: Namun, kekaguman mereka tak bertahan lama ketika langit tiba-tiba gelap.
En: However, their admiration didn't last long when the sky suddenly darkened.

Id: Kilat menyambar, dan suara gemuruh mengisi...
