The Old Man And The Forest

Our changing world is a significant threat to many living beings around us, one of them being the orangutan. The apes are now dependent on feeding stations as deforestation has massively altered their habitats and food sources. According to FAO, between 2015 and 2020, the rate of deforestation was about 10 million hectares per year.
