Man of the forest, orangutan, left by evolution of man,
which branch you followed but the lower rung;
or left by chance in a billion from a satellite in the sky,
that made a master that can think, walk and fly.


The orangutans are three extant species of great apes native to Indonesia and Malaysia. Orangutans are currently only found in the rainforests of Borneo and Sumatra. Classified in the genus Pongo, orangutans were originally considered to be one species. They have a life span of 35 to 45 years.
