Donated 10 Trees
He lives in the rainforests of the island of Sumatra, also home to tigers, elephants and rhinos. In fact, Sumatra is the only place on Earth where all these magnificent species can be found living under the same forest canopy.
You can help make sure that Armstrong and his friends have room to roam, so they can thrive in the wild.
Millions of people living in forest-edge communities rely on them for their survival. In a real way, we all do: protecting rainforest landscapes like these is crucial in the fight against climate change.
The key to protecting orangutans is preserving their forest home – vibrant jungles, buzzing with life. Without this they cannot thrive in the wild, and without them the forest would lose a key ‘gardener’ which helps to maintain the health and vitality of the ecosystem.
The Sumatran Orangutan Society works to protect orangutans, their forests and their future. We support frontline conservation programmes in and around the rainforests of northern Sumatra.
We have already helped to plant more than 2 million trees to replace some of the forests that have been lost. We need to increase these efforts to restore Armstrong’s home to its full glory, and ensure it is safe for a long time to come.
We work with communities living alongside orangutans in Sumatra, empowering and equipping them to become guardians of their forests and wildlife.
