Introduction

The orangutan is probably one of the more fascinating apes in existence. Less people know a lot about it compared to animals like the chimpanzee and the gorilla, but they certainly have their own charms.

A red ape with very long arms, the orangutan looks kind of silly. But it has intelligence that surpasses its appearance, and has fascinated scientists and storytellers alike for centuries.
