The Sumatran Orangutans are located in the Indomalaya Section of the Toronto Zoo
The main reason for the decline in Orangutan numbers is a decline in the loss of their tropical forest habitats. There are only slightly different physical characteristics between the two classifications. The Sumatran Orangutans eat more fruits and have demonstrated the use of tools. The
images below are of Sumatran Orangutans, and while I was photographing
them, I observed their high intelligence as I watched them search for a
stick and then use the stick to get access to a food that had been placed
by zookeepers in a plastic container.
The young Orangutan used the stick to stir the contents of the
container, removed the stick, and then licked the food source.

orangutan raise their offspring alone, caring for them for about five
years. They have their first
infants sometime between the age of 12 and 15.
Life expectancy for Orangutans is about 45 years.

Did you know... that Orangutans are omnivores which means that they eat both plants and animals? Their favourite foods, however, are fruits.
