they are being extinct because of the devastating effect of the palm oi and the deforestation
Orangutans are endangered mainly due to loss of habitat/deforestation. Orangutans are arboreal animals, which means they spend all of their life in the trees. Their habitat is being level to build plantations on and their trees are subject to logging. Without trees, the orangutan will not be able to survive.

Nope.Its not critical.It is endangered according to Arkive.com.
There are two species of orangutan. The Bornean orangutan is endangered, and has a population of approximately 45,000 in the wild. The Sumatran orangutan is critically endangered, with about 7,300 individuals that were living in the wild in 2004.
Yes, it is. An endangered species.
orangutans live in tropical rainforests.one species of orangutan lives on the island of borneo.the other species lives on sumatra.both orangutan species are endangered
Orangutans currently exist on the islands of Borneo and Sumatra, southeast of mainland Asia. They spend most of their lives foraging for fruit and leaves high in the rainforest canopy. However, finding them in the wild is difficult because they are very rare (the Sumatran orangutan is critically endangered, and the Bornean orangutan is endangered).
People hunt orangutans for food But mainly poor people in borneo like to eat the orangutans.
As of now, there are several human species that are considered endangered. The exact number can vary depending on the criteria used to determine endangerment, but some examples include the Sumatran Orangutan, Tapanuli Orangutan, and the Amur Leopard.
Mainly habitat loss was the reason.They began to fall in numbers in the 1960's, and recovery has been slow, but is improving.
There are a number of animals that in danger of extinction all over the world. Some of the endangered species include the Philippine eagle, the red wolf, the Sumatran orangutan, and the African penguin.
The main reason is deforestation of their habitat, and capture of young for zoos.
