Orangutans primarily inhabit the tropical rainforests of Borneo and Sumatra in Southeast Asia. They are arboreal creatures, mostly living in the upper canopies of trees, where they find food, build nests, and seek shelter. These regions provide the dense vegetation and fruit-rich environment that are crucial for their survival. However, habitat loss due to logging and palm oil plantations poses a significant threat to their populations.
