Orangutans (or orangutans, are unaware of any other name) is a kind of great ape with long arms and reddish or brown fur, which live in tropical forests Indonesia danMalaysia, especially on the island of Borneo and Sumatra
Description
The term "orang utan" is taken from the Indonesian language, which means the man (person) of forest. Includes two species of orangutan, the Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abelii) and borneo orangutan (Borneo) (Pongo pygmaeus). What is unique is the orangutan has a close kinship to humans at the level of kingdom Animalia, where the orangutans have a DNA similarity rate of 96.4%.
Characteristics
They have a plump body and big, big necked, long and strong arms, short legs and bowed, and did not have a tail.
Orangutan has a height of about 1.25-1.5 m.
Orangutan's body covered with brownish red hair. They have a large head with a height position of the mouth.
On reaching the level of sexual maturity, male orangutans have a fat temples on both sides, the crown of a large, long hair and beard grow around the face. They have the same senses as humans, namely hearing, sight, smell, taste, and touch.
Weight of approximately 50-90 kg male orangutan, whereas female orangutan weighs about 30-50 kg.
Their palms had 4 long fingers plus one thumb. The soles of their feet also have an arrangement of the fingers are very similar to humans.
Orangutan is still included in the species of great apes such as gorillas and chimpanzees. Incoming class of great apes in klasifikasimammalia, having a large brain size, which leads the eye forward, and hands that can grip.
Classification
Orangutan including vertebrates, which means that they have a backbone. Orangutan also includes hewanmamalia and primates.
[Edit] Species and subspecies
A. There are two species of orangutan, the orangutan of Borneo / Borneo (Pongo pygmaeus) and Sumatran Orangutan (Pongo abelii).
2. Sumatra and Borneo Orangutan offspring differ from 1.1 to 2.3 million years ago.
3. Subspecies
Genetic Learning has identified three subspecies of Borneo Orangutan: Pppygmaeus, Ppwurmbii, Ppmorio.§ Each subspecies differentiated according to geographical distribution and covers an area the size of the body.
Orangutan Central Kalimantan (Ppwurmbii) inhabiting the area of West Kalimantan and Central Kalimantan.§ They are the largest subspecies of Borneo.
Northeast Borneo Orangutan (Ppmorio) inhabit the areas of Sabah and East Kalimantan.§ They are the smallest subspecies.
There is currently no successful Borneo Orangutan subspecies recognized.§
Orangutans are found in tropical rainforest areas of Southeast Asia, namely on the island of Borneo in the region of the country danSumatra Indonesia and Malaysia. They usually live in dense trees and make nests of leaves. {{Fact Orangutans can live in a variety of forest types, ranging from dipterokarpus forest hills and plains, river basins, freshwater swamp forests, peat bogs, dry soil above the mangrove swamps and palm, up to the mountain forests.
In Borneo, orangutans can be found at an altitude of 500 m above sea level (asl), while relatives in Sumatra has been reported to reach the mountain forests at an altitude of 1,000 m above sea level. Sumatran orangutan is one of the endemic animals that exist only in Sumatra. Orangutans in Sumatra only occupies the northern part of the island, began dariTimang Elephants, Central Aceh until Sitinjak in South Tapanuli. The presence of these protected mammals Act 5 of 1990 on Conservation of Natural Resources and Ecosystems, and ranked as Critically Endangered by the IUCN.
In Sumatra, one of the orangutan population found in the river basin (DAS) Batang Toru, North Sumatra. Population of wild orangutans in Sumatra is estimated to number 7300. In the Batang Toru pupulasi 380 tail with density of about 0.47 to 0.82 birds per square kilometer. Sumatran orangutans (Pongo abelii lesson) is now estimated 7,500 birds. Whereas in 1990 an estimated 200,000 heads. Their population in 13 regions are geographically separated. These conditions led to their survival is threatened with extinction.
Currently almost all of Sumatran Orangutans are only found in the province of North Sumatra and Aceh province, the Lake Toba as the southernmost limit of its spread, only two relatively small population in the southwest [[lake], namely East Sarulla and forests in the Trunk Toru West. Sumatra's largest orangutan population found in the West Leuser (2508 individuals) and East Leuser (1,052 individuals), and Rawa Singkil (1,500 individuals). Another estimated population of potential to survive in the long run (viable) is located at Batang Toru, North Sumatra, with a size of about 400 individuals.
Orangutans in Borneo that are categorized as endangered by the IUCN is divided into three subspecies: Orangutans in Borneo are grouped into three types, namely Pongo pygmaeus pygmaeus are located in the northern part of the Kapoeas up to the northeast of Sarawak; Pongo pygmaeus wurmbii found starting from the south of the River Kapuas to the west of the River Barito, and Pongo pygmaeus morio. In Borneo, orangutans can be found in Sabah, Sarawak, and almost all the lowland forests of Borneo, South kecualiKalimantan and Brunei Darussalam.
Food
Although orangutans including omnivorous animals, most of them only eat plants. 90% of food in the form of fruit. Among other food is the bark, leaves, flowers, several species of insects, and about 300 types of fruits
In addition, they also feed on nectar, honey and mushrooms. They also like to eat durian, although the sharp scent, but they love it.
Orangutans do not even need to leave their tree if you want to drink.They usually drink water that has accumulated in the holes between tree branches.
Usually the mother orangutan teaches how to get food, how to get drinks, and various jenispohon in different seasons. Through this, it can be seen that the orangutan has a complex map of forest sites in their brains, so they do not waste energy when searching for food.And children also can find various types of trees and plants, which are edible and how to process the food that is protected by a shell and sharp duriyang.
Predator
Orangutan today's biggest predator is man. Besides humans, orangutans predator is the leopard, pig, crocodile, python, and the black eagle.
How to protect yourself
Orangutan including shy creatures. They rarely show themselves to people or other beings who did not know.
Reproduction
Orangutan females usually give birth at the age of 7-10 years old with content ranging from 8.5 to 9 months, almost the same with humans. The number of babies born to a female is usually only one.Baby orangutans can live independently at the age of 6-7 years.Dependence on its mother orangutan is the longest of all animals, because there are many things to learn in order to survive, they are usually kept until the age of 6 years.
Orangutan breeding longer than other primates, orangutans females only give birth to one offspring every 7-8 years. Age of orangutans in the wild about 45 years, and along gidupnya female orangutans have only 3 offspring for life. Where it means the reproduction of the orangutan is very slow.
How to move
Orangutan can move quickly from tree to tree by swinging on tree branches, or the usual dipanggilbrachiating They can also walk on two feet, but rarely found. Orangutans can not swim.
Way of life
Unlike gorillas and chimpanzees, orangutans do not live in a big herd. They are semi-solitary animals. Orangutan males are usually found alone and female orangutan usually accompanied by some of his children. Although oranutan often climb and build a bed cult, they are essentially terrestrial animals (spend the lands of life)
Some interesting facts
Orangutans can use sticks as tools to get food, and use the leaves as sun protection.§
Orangutan male has the biggest arm span (length from one end of the hand to the other end when the hands are extended) to reach 2.3 m.§
male orangutan can make long distance calls can be heard within a radius of 1 km. [8] is used to mark / monitor their area, called the female, preventing other male orangutans are disturbing.§ They have a large throat sac that makes them able to do so.
Population
Orangutans are currently found only in Sumatra and Borneo, in Southeast Asia region. Because the residence is a dense forest, it is difficult to estimate the exact number of population. In Borneo, the orangutan population is estimated around 55,000 individuals. In Sumatra, the number is estimated approximately 7,500 individuals.
Threat
Greatest threat being experienced by the orangutan habitat is the more narrow because of a rain forest homes used as palm oil, mining and trees felled for timber. Orangutans have lost 80% of the habitat in less than 20 years. Not infrequently they are injured and even killed by the petanidan landowners because they are considered pests. If a female orangutan was found by his son, the mother would be killed and his son then sold in the illegal animal trade. Rehabilitation center was established to care for oranutan the sick, injured and who have lost their mothers. They were treated with the goal to be returned to its original habitat.
