Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Did you know...

 

there are less than 6,650 surviving orangutans in Sumatra today.

80% of orangutan habitat has been destroyed in the last 20 years.

every minute an area of forest the size of 6 football fields is lost in Indonesia.

the destruction of rainforests and the poaching of young orangutans for the pet trade contribute to their decline.

Sumatra’s forests provide a livelihood to many Indonesian people without which their existence is also endangered.

other rare and precious wildlife share the orangutans’ habitat such as Sumatran elephant, tiger, rhinoceros and clouded leopard.

 I'm truly grateful for your help, as will them lovely orangutans be!
