TOP TEN OF ORANGUTANS
1. Orangutans Are One Of Smartest Animals On the Planet.
Orangutans match gorillas and chimpanzees in cognitive ability tests. And believe me, they don’t put these smarts to waste.
2. Orangutans Love the Taste of Soap.
Not only do they love durian, the smelliest fruit I’ve ever come across, but they also happen to enjoy the taste of soap which, surprisingly, doesn’t upset their stomachs. Though in many ways we’re very similar to orangutans, I wouldn’t suggest trying either at home.
3. Orangutans Have Opposable Thumbs and Bog Toes.
Like us, orangutans have opposable thumbs. But they also have opposable big toes which allow them to swing effortlessly from the tallest trees in the rainforest.
4. Orangutans Are Talented Engineers.
According to researchers, orangutans show remarkably advanced engineering skills when building nests. They have an excellent understanding of the structural properties of branches, using thick branches to weave a strong scaffold for their nest and filling it with thin branches to construct a springy bed. What’s more, orangutan’s build a new nest every single day and they have their nest-building speed down to a very neat five or six minutes.
5. For Female Orangutans, There's Nothing Sexier in a Male than Big Cheek Pads
Mature male orangutans have large flappy cheek-pads, known as flanges. The bigger a male’s cheek pads, the more attractive a female will find him.
6. Orangutans Have the Closest Relationship between Mother and Young 0f any non-human mammal.
As infants, orangutans are completely inseparable from their mothers. Mother orangutans carry their offspring around for the first five years. They suckle them until they’re six or seven. And they sleep together in the same nest every night until they’re at least eight years old. Other than humans, no other animals exhibit as strong a bond between mother and child.
7. Orangutans Have the Best Daily Routine Ever.
A wild orangutan’s daily routine looks like this: wake up, eat, take a relaxing nap, play, eat again, sleep. Okay, this isn’t so much an interesting fact for you as it is a wish list for me.
8. Orangutans’ arms can be longer than you are tall
Orangutans' arms can grow to a reach of seven feet. To put that figure in perspective, think about the height of the tallest person you know - then add a foot or so onto them.
9. Orangutans share 97% of their DNA with humans
This makes them one our closest relatives in the animal kingdom. Obvious similarities can be seen in hands, feet and faces. Orangutans also have 32 teeth - just like us. They smile and laugh - like us
10. Orangutans is a Ticklish
