Orangutans

Description:

In Orangutans in Danger, young readers will follow orangutans living in the rain forests as they learn about their natural habitat, physical characteristics, diet, lifecycle, and behavior. Yet environmentalists warn that orangutans may be extinct within 10 years. Can the orangutans be saved? Produced in association with conservation experts, Orangutans in Danger details efforts to reverse the threat to our wildlife, and even suggests how children can help. Full-color wildlife photographs, habitat map, and hi-lo text encourage children to become wildlife advocates. Orangutans in Danger is part of Bearport's Wildlife Survival series.
