Bad news for orangs

This is not good news for orangutans. Intentional forest fires in Indonesia killed up to a thousand orangutans this year. If this continues, they may be extinct within the decade.

Tsunami

The Asian Tsunamis that occurred have had devastating effects on the people and land. We should also think about the animals too though. Orangutans only live on Borneo and Sumatra, and Sumatra was the worst hit. Orangutans are extremely endangered, and think about what the tsunamis could have done to their populations. More people died on Sumatra than there are orangutans. Let’s just hope orangutans aren’t extinct now. However, I did read this article about how animals may have sensed the tsunami before it came. Check it out.
