Description
Orangutans are among the most intelligent primates, and also the most critically endangered. Once ranging throughout southeast Asia, they are now only found on dwindling parts of the islands of Borneo and Sumatra. Severely threatened by human actions such as poaching, deforestation and habitat destruction, their numbers have continued to decline between 1999 - 2015 despite protections. Estimated population numbers vary from organization to organization, but there are currently only about 104,000 Borean Orangutans living in the wild. In Sumatra the Sumatran Orangutan population numbers less than 14,000 and the Tanapuli Orangutan fewer than 800. Conservation efforts are underway to help prevent further population loss, and reintroduce Orangutans that have been kept captive illegally to the wild. But time is running out for this endangered species.
A portion of proceeds from the purchase of this original piece or any merchandise containing this print will be donated directly to the support and conservation efforts of this species.
