Orang utans (pongo pygmaeus) are found only in Borneo and Sumatra (Indonesia).
Orang utans spend most of their time in tree tops of the rainforest out of harms way of most predators and foraging for food.
Sadly, orang utans are endangered, with an estimated 80% of their suitable habitat destroyed by man.
Orang utans are such endearing creatures with many facial expressions that shows human characteristics. Orang utans’ estimated life span in the wild is 30 – 40 years.
