LET'S TALK ABOUT ORANG UTAN
Hey there fellows!
Have you ever watch a real orang utan or you just watch them at animal planet or some magazines? Did you know that Orang utan is a species that always spend their time at treetops. They usually kill their time by swinging at the tree branch and finding foods such as fruits. Have you heard that these orang utan are only found in two places which is the Borneo region and Sumatera, Indonesia.
Can you believe that?
They also called as a primates that have the least population in this world that is approximately 30 000 left in this world and this data is taken about 10 years ago. Can you imagine how much orang utan are there left at the Borneo and Sumatera now?

WHY ORANGUTANS' HABITAT IS DECREASING ?
1 ) Commercial logging
2 ) Clearance for agricultural activities
3 ) Conversions to plantation
Because of the above activities these poor creatures have lost both their habitat and the supply of food. Despite legal protection in Sumatra and Borneo, Orangutans are often killed for their meat.
Some people have different kind of savour. This is because some of these freaks, love to eat exotic animals meats such as orangutan. Isn’t that is stupid and an irrelevant action. The orangutan is a slow moving animal thus making it easier for the poachers to catch and kill them.
The most unforgivable thing is when they separated the baby orangutan from it mother to sell them to local zoo meanwhile its mother being killed for its expensive body parts. Even some of these primates are turn from wild animal into an entertainment that works for nothing but only for human profits. They were dressed in ridiculous outfit and been trained to do stunts while others are enjoying living freely in the forest. This is all because of money an entertainment purposes.
