"Why"
Orangutans and Primates species are critically endangered, as it is now
common practice for expired logging concessions to be given the
clear-cut go-ahead to continue and convert Jungle quickly into plantations. This is before
anyone notices or even cares, often with nobody to administer this devastation
it remains undocumented often only picked up by satellite. The rapid expansion of "Palm Oil Plantationsacross Sumatra, Indonesia and Borneo". Has already
involved the clear-felling of millions of "hectares of forests" all are unprotected lowland forests they are vulnerable to the conservation of Mother Earth. Orangutans are listed as a type of people, Humans don’t know that they have the same breeding cycle as us humans. Orangutans like sanitation for example towels or pads to clean they don't like captivity, a once monthly ovulation makes it hard for them to breed if conditions are unsettled. There are very quiet although unlike human they mature much faster well about seven to eight years, as appose to eighteen for an average Human. The Human-Orangutan Conflictis
now frequent in agricultural areas, as orangutans are force
d out of degraded forest fragments in search of enough food for survival. This
endangered and protected species, is a Flagship for the conservation of South-east
Asian rain forests. Orangutans often considered to be agricultural pests and
killed. Agricultural development and the construction of new roads opens
up the forest, creating access to previously undisturbed areas for hunters and
poachers. In international law, that is Illegal Trade In theory, orangutans are protected by legislation
dating from 1931, which prohibits the owning, killing, or capture of this species. In practice, the illegal trade in orangutans in Indonesia continues to
decimate the remaining numbers in the wild. These populations should always remain protected Book Club often speaks out agent's the slaughter in the hope that reason will prevail as it is a small world where these last few Primates should enjoy freedom of the Rain-Forrest remain free from the "pet category".
Orangutans are highly intelligent and gentle animals.
They use tools in the wild and have excellent memories to make mental maps of
their forest home in order to find fruiting trees throughout the seasons. Orangutans
are unique in many ways. They are the only Great Ape in Southeast Asia, and the
only Great Ape found outside Africa. They are the only 'red' ape, and the only
strictly arboreal ape, meaning that they spend their lives in the forest
canopy, even building nests in the trees in which to sleep. The other Great
Apes (chimpanzees, bonitos and gorillas) do climb and build nests in the trees,
but tend to spend their lives on the ground.the sound of this great last of
this primate as there are a few species. Leuser Ecosystem, a 2.6 million
hectare expanse of forest spanning the provinces of Aceh and North
Sumatra, is one of the world's most important biodiversity hot spots.
It was designated an UNESCO Tropical Rain forest Heritage Site in 2004, but has
since been placed on a list of danger-ed species just "four thousand left from a once eighty thousand" that could die at any time Due to the ongoing threats. The ecosystem incorporates the Gunung Leuser National
Park, and is the last stronghold for the Sumatran orangutan. Both legal
and illegal logging activity has led to the degradation of forests across
Sumatra. Although logged forests are not able to support high population
densities, orangutans can still survive in these disturbed habitats provided a range of "Park lands" that are protected and designated. Often killed as a
by-product of logging and clear cutting for plantations, a mother orangutan is
almost always killed to “capture her infant”. It is estimated that for every
orangutan orphan that is sold, six to eight orangutans die in the process of
capture and transport. The orangutan is one of our closest relatives in the
animal kingdom, sharing 96.4% of our DNA. Indigenous peoples of Indonesia and
Malaysia call this ape "OrangHutan" which literally translates as
"Person of the Forest". Orangutans also differ from the other Great
Apes in that they do not live in family groups. The largest family unit is a
female and two offspring, and males and females usually meet up only to breed.
This semi-solitary lifestyle is thought to have evolved due to the
unpredictability of available of food sources. Orangutans primarily eat fruit, and spend
up to 60% of their time foraging and eating in order to get enough energy. As
there were once widespread throughout the forests of Asia, orangutans are now
confined to just two islands, Sumatra and Borneo. There are two genetically
distinct species: the Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abelii) and
the Bornean orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus).
The two species show slightly different physical characteristics. Sumatran
orangutans have lighter hair and a longer beard than their Borneo relatives,
and Sumatran males have narrower cheek pads. Both species are highly endangered
due to habitat loss and poaching. Orangutans breed more slowly than any other
primate, with the female producing a baby on average only once every 7-8 years.
Infants are dependent on their mothers for at least five years, learning about
survival in the forest. Orangutans live for around 45 years in the wild, and a
female will usually have no more than 3 offspring in her lifetime. This means
that orangutan populations grow very slowly and take a long time to recover
from habitat disturbance and hunting.
