Orangutans are great apes that spend most of their days swinging around in trees. They’re known for their distinct red fur and long arms. They also make nests when they want to go to sleep in the trees they call home. There are two different types of orangutans — Bornean and Sumatran — and both are critically endangered, due to illegal wildlife pet trade, rainforest destruction, and mining. In particular, illegal logging for palm oil has contributed to the rapid loss of orangutan habitats in Asia.
