Thank you for taking a stand today, before it’s too late.

Orangutans are in critical danger of extinction: rampant deforestation destroys their homes and habitat. The illegal pet trade, poaching and forest fires also threaten their survival. Today, their population is down 50% since 1960.

But you can help protect orangutans and their treetop habitat.

With your gift,

YOU help us save orangutans by protecting their forest homes, and by supporting communities who preserve their village forests…

YOU stand up for the protection of other endangered species around the world, from snow leopards in Mongolia to elephants in Myanmar and Africa…

YOU protect and restore critical habitats that wildlife and people need to survive, from Hong Kong reefs to tropical rain forests in Indonesia and the Amazon…

YOU fight climate change, combat air and water pollution, and restore health and vibrancy to our natural world…

YOU join the world’s foremost science-based conservation organization, and our one million supporters who believe in the power of people, partnerships, and collaboration to solve the greatest environmental threats of our time.

Thank you for taking action today.

Orangutans are in critical danger of extinction. The word “orangutan” means “person of the forest” in Malay, and for good reason: orangutans share 97% of our DNA.
