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.

Sepilok Orang Utan Sanctuary



Sepilok Orang-utan Rehabilitation Centre is located about 25 kilometers west of Sandakan, in eastern Malaysia on the island of Borneo in the state of Sabah. It was started in 1964 for rescue and rehabilitation of orphaned baby orangutans from logging sites, plantations, and illegal hunting. The orphaned orang-utans are trained to survive again in the wild and are released as soon as ready. The sanctuary is located within the Kabili-Sepilok Forest Reserve which covers an area of 5529 ha, much of which is virgin jungle[1]. It has become one of Sabah's top tourist attractions.

    It's in fact very complex in this full of activity life to listen news on TV, so I simply use internet for that purpose, and obtain the newest information.

    I'm amazed, I have to admit. Rarely do I encounter a blog that's
    both equally educative and amusing, and let me tell you,
    you've hit the nail on the head. The problem is something too few people are speaking intelligently about. Now i'm very happy that
    I stumbled across this during my search for something regarding
    this.
