Pregnant Orangutan clings to the last tree in the forest

[Catherine]

Why is there a last tree? The forest is being cleared for a palm oil plantation. The Boon-Mee, the orangutan was too weak and frightened to leave the tree. Fortunately a rescue group was called in. They found four orangutans around the last tree. One was a little baby. They managed to rescue them all. 
After good care they all recovered and Boon-Mee was able to have her baby safely.
They have all been released to another forested area where they can find food and live safely.
Many orangutans are not as lucky. They are killed, not rescued and the baby would be sold as a pet.

This is why we don't eat foods made with palm oil. They directly harm orangutans. Farmers want the quick profit they can get from clearing forests and growing palms. They don't care about the long term impact on the ecosystem of the cruelty to Orangutans who are just trying to live in their home the forest.

Just say no to palm oil. Our Orangutan cousins will thank you.
