#AtoZChallenge – Orangutan

The orangutan is an exclusively Asian ape. They are currently only found in the Borneo and Sumatra rainforests.

The reddish-brown orangutan spends most of its time in trees and primarily eats fruit but other things like vegetation, bark, honey, insects and bird eggs are consumed.
