Orangutans are large, reddish apes with long arms, shaggy fur, and grasping hands and feet:
Appearance: Orangutans have long, sparse orange or reddish hair, large jaws, and flattened noses. They have long, muscular arms that are stronger and longer than their legs.
Size: Adult female orangutans weigh between 80 and 120 pounds, while adult males weigh between 170 and 220 pounds.
Habitat: Orangutans live in the trees of Borneo and Sumatra, and are the world's largest tree-dwelling mammal.
Diet: Orangutans eat primarily fruit, but also nuts, bark, and sometimes insects and bird eggs.
Nests: Orangutans build nests in trees to sleep in at night and rest during the day. They weave branches and leaves together to make a roof over their nests to stay dry.
Social structure: Orangutans live semi-solitary lives in the wild.
Reproduction: Orangutans usually have a single baby, and twins are rare.
Endangered status: Orangutans are endangered due to deforestation.
