The Situation and Its Impact

0:18
Forests around the world are disappearing relentlessly. Because trees are cut down carelessly, many wild animals lose their natural homes from one day to the next. Animals suffer tremendously because most of their food and shelter disappears instantly, forcing them into dangerous areas.

Specific Example: The Sumatran Orangutan

0:22
A clear example of a species in danger is the Sumatran orangutan. Vast amounts of their rainforest habitat in Indonesia have been aggressively destroyed to create palm oil plantations. Orangutans depend on tall trees to survive, so they walk desperately through ruined land looking for food. Because of this, countless orangutans die every single year.

Impact on the Ecosystem

0:19
When orangutans disappear, the entire ecosystem changes dramatically. Orangutans play a vital role because they spread seeds across the forest. Without them, numerous plant and tree species stop growing. Consequently, much of the forest suffers, and several other animals lose their shelter and disappear rapidly.
