Description
Tapanuli Orangutan Of The Wild shows the most endangered species of orangutan up close. With less than 800 left, this critically endangered orangutan needs a bit of help. Swinging through her trees with big, slow swings she is a target for hunters who will kill her for bushmeat and take her babies for the illegal pet trade. She has also seen her home destroyed, with the diverse rainforest turning into one big plantation.

This is a collection of 12 striking bronze busts, with the first edition currently on exhibition as part of the Faces Of The Wild conservation project in New York City. A partnership with the WWF to bring awareness for threatened species onto the streets of NYC.

Saving nature is at the very heart of WWF’s work. For over 60 years, the organization has sought to find solutions to help save the marvelous array of life on our planet, by applying the best science available and working closely with local communities who live near and among wildlife. For this reason we have partnered with WWF (USA) to provide 30% of sale proceeds for this item to help protect these vulnerable species.
