Why run for orangutans?

They face a mammoth uphill problem - and so do we all

Orangutans are critically endangered. Habitat destruction, poaching, and the illegal pet trade have pushed them to the brink of extinction. It’s a race against the clock to change the very real possibility that - like the woolly mammoth - we could lose them forever.

Because orangutans are crucial to the Bornean rainforests that are the “lungs” of the earth, the health of our planet is also endangered. These forests absorb vast amounts of carbon dioxide, produce clean oxygen, help regulate the climate, and slow the effects of global warming.

When you #RaceAgainstTheClock for orangutan conservation, your impact goes beyond a single species - you contribute to ensuring a stable future for all life on Earth.
