Orangutans share 97% of the same DNA and genetics as humans; but our commonalities won`t protect their precarious futures. With only 60,000 orangutans left in the wild, the sad reality is that they could become extinct within our lifetime. Deforestation, the spread of palm oil and rubber tree fields and forest fires are the most common reasons for their decline. The biggest problem the Sumatran orangutan faces is deforestation by the increase of palm oil tree fields.
