Orangutans

Orangutans are mammals and one of the species of Great Apes. Their young are born, not hatched. They do not lay eggs.

I walk my golden about 1 hour a night, as long as she or he is full grown and its not to hot you should be fine, you really only have to worry about a puppy walking to far Make sure to bring along water or walk near a water source as goldens love there water!!

they would be put on the endangered species list and would need to be put in reserves to help population to have a come back.

Standard of Living

Calculated from 7 May, 2010, there are 1,151 days, inclusive of the dates given.

202 days. And that is counting today, March 30, 2010.

People are illegally buying them or trapping them into cages to sell to zoos, pet stores, or orangutan eaters or illegally keeping them.

Its all because of the palm oil plantation, people create them making sure that they are dying out. The male orangutans don't have anywhere to sleep because the palm trees are the only trees that can support their weight of 118kg, this means there are less male orangutans around because either they sleep on the ground and are killed or they find another tree and it breaks and they fall out and die.

Poachers also try to kill them , they also drag baby orangutans away from their mothers (which is tight and cruel). They also slaughter the baby orangutan's mothers, they cut down the trees which is taking away their habitat :( we should do something about it and help

An orangutan takes care of it's baby much like a human cares for their young. The orangutan will carry the baby and nurse it.

Hello I am Jenani

I Think they adapt to their environment by may diffferent ways one i will tell you list of how they adaption work

1.

The reddish-orange coloration is a trait that is well adapted for a forested environment. The sunlight that filters through the forest canopy shines down on numerous levels of vegetation before reaching the forest floor. Vegetation absorbs red and orange light of the color spectrum. By the time sunlight reaches the forest floor, most of the red and orange light is filtered out, making it difficult to detect these colors in the forest environment. Light absorption enables the orangutan's coloration to virtually disappear, blending seamlessly into their forest environment.

2.

Orangutan eyes are dark brown, an adaptation to help protect their eyes from sunlight. Darker eye colors have more pigmentation, than lighter colored eyes; absorbing sunlight before damaging UV light can penetrate to the back of the eyes.

Orangutans possess many adaptations that help them live successfully in their habitat. Orangutans spend almost all of their day in the tree canopy so it is no surprise that they have adapted to live in the trees. The arm length of an Orangutan is 7 feet which allows them to hang on to branches and support themselves. Although Orangutans are considered brachiators, they are very cautious climbers and use any combination of their four grasping extremities (1). The term Brachiator is used loosely with Orangutans since they never jump or drop from tree limb to limb (5). Orangutans suspend their weight from their arms and tree sway using trees like a pole vault. Besides the length of their arms, Orangutans possess a more fully opposable big toe and a highly mobile hip. This adaptation is a consequence of their primary Arboreal lifestyle. In contrast, Gorillas and Chimpanzees live a primary Terrestrial lifestyle.

Orangutans are the only Great Ape to travel predominantly through the trees. When Orangutans do come out of the trees and travel on the ground, they use a method of walking called "Fist Walking". This method of walking Quadrupedally is done by curling the thumb around their fist and as the name implies, walking on their fists. The other Great Apes (Gorillas, Chimpanzees, and Bonobos) travel terrestrially by walking quadrupedally on their knuckles, a method known as "Knuckle Walking".

The adult male Orangutan possess cheek pads and a drooping laryngeal throat pouch. These characteristics are not only intimidating to other Orangutans, but they also help the male Orangutan with his long call. Male Orangutans give off "long calls" that will notify other Orangutans of the male's location in the forest and keep other competing males from approaching the area (2).The cheek pads of adult males are believed to increase the distance of their long call and the massive size creates a convincing threat to their challengers. These pads are made up of subcutaneous collections of fibrous tissue between the eyes and ears.

NOTE THIS: Orang-utans now in endangered animals and their adaption is fading away by cause of plam oil your lucky you saw a orang-utan in furture you never hear one

Given today's date of August 17, 2010, and including today's date, there are 604 days between today and April 12, 2012.

Yes. Orangutans are very strong and can easily kill people.

As of today's date, August 17, 2010, there are 257 days until May 1, 2011.

They lived in the Eastern Woodlands where there are lots of elk and deer to hunt, crops to eat, and fish to cook. They fished in canoes made of branches and their most important crops were called, The Three Sisters which consists of corn, beans, and squash. Hope this helps...

Technically, none. Humans are not supposed to consume milk past early childhood, as our intestines cease the production of lactase (the digestive enzyme needed to digest lactose, the protein found in milk) as we grow older. Dairy consumption has been linked to hormonal imbalances, resistance to antibiotics, as well as both breast and prostate cancer. When milk is pasteurized is loses very little of the purported "health benefits" and is not a very valuable source of vitamin D or calcium.

If you're going to drink milk, I *personally* wouldn't let my child consume any more than one 8 oz. glass a day. There are many delicious milk alternatives (soy,rice,almond, hemp, etc.) that are enriched with tons of vitamins and minerals too.

what was the date and day of Amavasya OF JUN, JULY, AUGUST

In Luke's Gospel, the ascension of Jesus occurred on the evening of his resurrection. In Acts of the Apostles, by the same author but written some time later, the ascension of Jesus occurred forty days after his resurrection.

As today is January 27, 2010 there are 15 days until February 11, 2010.

NO!

Orangutans are NOT good pets! Orangutans are an endangered species,and to get a baby orangutan for the pet trade, their mother is shot, and due to poor handling most infants die en route. Even if they are born in captivity, they are taken from their mothers at birth, and this has the exact same effect it would on a human mother and child.

Orangutans are extremely strong, way stronger than any human. No matter how loving a relationship they have with their owner there is always the possibility they will attack.

As infants, they are relatively easy to care for and can be raised as a human child. When they reach adolescence however, they start to become unmanageable, to the point where they have to be confined to a cage. Not even trainers in Hollywood can handle them at this point. After a lifetime of abuse, the orangutans are either put in abreeding situation or confined to a cage. Even a relatively well equipped cage is not ideal for an orangutan. They are simply too intelligent. It is like confining a human child to a cage their whole life.

Zoos usually cannot take pet orangutans, as they learn how to be an orangutan from their mother, and have no idea how to interact with other orangutans. Many are so humanized they view themselves as humans. Zoos are usually full anyway, and the same goes for sanctuaries.

IF you love orangutans, work to protect them in the wild, visit them in the zoo, or fundraise for the Center for Great Apes, but NEVER keep one as a pet.

Orangutans are solitary and need a lot of space, not because they don't like other orangutans, but because they eat a lot of fruit since they are big animals. Since they eat so much fruit, they need a lot of space to find enough fruit.
