Jason's
Orang-Utan Links - "the orangutan is the sad heap of half
deflated inner-tubes you hurry past on the way to the rather
more out-going chimpanzees and gorillas." Due to large scale
de-forestation they are an endangered species, there are only
around 20000 Orang-Utan's left in the world.
Mother
and baby orang-utan - Its fundamental desires remain and
it is the frustration of those desires that is a great part of
its suffering. Eventually we frustrate the animal's most
fundamental desire of all--to live.

Orangutan Foundation
International - The mission of the Orangutan Foundation
International (OFI) is to support the conservation and
understanding of the orangutan and its rain forest habitat
while caring for ex-captive individuals as they make their way
back to the forest. Furthermore, OFI promotes the
dissemination of information about the orangutan and its
plight in order to galvanize the public and policy-makers
towards an appreciation of the ape's value and current dilemma
so that it might be saved from extinction.
Orang-Utan
- The whole case for behaving decently to animals rests on the
fact that we are the superior species. We are the species
uniquely capable of imagination, rationality and moral choice
- and that is precisely why we are under an obligation to
recognise and respect the rights of animals.

The
Great Ape Project - The Great Ape Project is an idea, a
book, and an organization. The idea is radical but simple: to
include the non-human great apes within the community of
equals by granting them the basic moral and legal protection
that only human beings currently enjoy. The book, which is the
collective work of a group of scientists and scholars, is a
multifaceted argument against the unthinking denial of
fundamental rights to beings who are not members of our own
species, but who quite evidently possess many of the
characteristics that we consider morally important.
The Orang Utan
- The orang utan is found only in Borneo and Sumatra,
almost exclusively in lowland rainforest areas.
