Orangutans breed slower than any other primate and have approximately 3 offspring in their lifetime.....Female orangutans usually have one baby at a time and will only have one every 6 to 7 years.....Baby orangutans cry when they’re hungry, whimper when they’re hurt and smile at their mothers.

Orangutans brachiate (swing arm-over-arm through the forest) better than any other ape.....Orangutans are diurnal which means they are active during the day. .....Mosquitoes bother orangutans just like they do humans and they will use branches like fly swatters to swish them away......In their true habitat, male orangutans live alone and females live alone or with their infants.

"HEY!!! HELP THEM! Give them a life... They are decreasing in number. Don't let our future generation didn't have the chance to see lively Pongo Phygmaeus and Pongo Albelii because of us. So stop chopping down those trees and give orangutans the chances to life!! Save orangutans!"
