On my journey to the Philippines with @60minutes I met this Southwest Bornean orangutan at the @Avilonzooph. Critically endangered Bornean orangutans are fully protected in both Malaysia and Indonesia, but the forest that they depend on is not. Logging to make room for palm oil plantations has made it almost impossible for orangutans to find tall old growth trees which they need to cross rivers that divide their habitat. The inability to move freely makes mating with other orangutans difficult, leading to a lack of genetic diversity which can be disastrous for a species whose numbers are already declining. Installing artificial rope bridges is a temporary solution to this problem, but it is not a permanent fix. You can help save orangutans by only buying from companies that support sustainable palm oil practices. See the other species I photographed in the Philippines this Sunday on @60minutes
