The orangutan is an umbrella species, whose presence protects other species, and they take an active role in maintaining the health of their forest ecosystems. Orangutans are known as ‘gardeners of the forest’ because they are irreplaceable when it comes to distributing seeds and helping tropical rainforests to thrive.
Human beings need forests - and forests need orangutans! That is why we all must protect orangutans, not just for them, but for our children and grandchildren. You too can contribute to their survival by taking small steps, like making a donation!
Join us now in celebrating World Orangutan Day and help support the work done by our dedicated superheroes in the field.
