Orangutan Conservation
Orangutan conservation focuses on protecting the habitats and populations of orangutans, primarily found in Borneo and Sumatra. These great apes face threats from deforestation, illegal logging, and palm oil plantations, which destroy their natural homes. Conservation efforts aim to preserve their forests and promote sustainable land use practices.
Organizations work to rehabilitate and release rescued orangutans back into the wild. Education and awareness campaigns help local communities understand the importance of biodiversity and the role of orangutans in their ecosystems. Supporting eco-friendly products and responsible tourism can also contribute to their conservation.
