Picture of Orangutan In Its Natural Environment
Description Of The Environment
The Orangutan is an arboreal animal that lives in the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia. It is mainly found in Indonesia and Malaysia, but there are also smaller populations north of the Malay Peninsula. The natural habitats of orangutans are varied, ranging from mangroves to mountainous primary forests. They can live at altitudes of up to 5,000 meters and generally prefer shady areas with a wide variety of fruit trees, allowing them to easily find their food. Orangutans are adapted to the hot and humid climatic conditions characteristic of the tropics; however, they have been known to survive in cooler, less humid regions if they provide enough food.
