(From Ann Curry, TODAY Anchor) Some scientists consider orangutans to be the world's most intelligent animal, second only to humans. There is even evidence they have a kind of culture, passing down knowledge from generation to generation, and more incredibly this knowledge appears to vary from one geographical area to another. They are elusive in the wild. To see them, our NBC News team had to hike deep in the rainforests of Borneo, through knee deep black water and constant waves of mosquitoes.

    Extractions: Orangutans used to thrive in many different parts of Southeast Asia, but these great apes are now a species in peril. Clear cutting, forest fires, and hunting are reducing the numbers of these creatures to alarmingly low levels even in Borneo and Sumatra, their last remaining homes. Because huge swathes of forest have been stripped apart for farmland, palm-oil plantations, and urban development, the orangutans' native habitats are disappearing, ravaged by deliberate fires that often claim the lives of orangutans trapped in the forest canopy. It costs more than $2,000 a year to rescue, rehabilitate, and release each orangutan, but you can help by giving as little as 30 cents a day to rescue sanctuaries such as the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation , which looks after over 800 rescued orangutans. To learn more about these magnificent animals, tune in to Orangutan Island every Friday at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

67. Palm Oil Crisis Information From The Cheyenne Mountain Zoo
    Palm Oil Information Protect orangutans by promoting sustainable palm oil production and proper labeling.  
    http://www.cmzoo.org/palmoil.html
    
    Extractions: In the recent wave of trying to avoid trans-fatty acids, the industrial alternative for partially hydrogenated oil is palm oil. Tragically, this industry substitute is far from a healthy option if you’re an orangutan. In fact, it’s deadly. This web page reflects CMZoo's committment to raising awareness about the complex issues surrounding palm oil. UPDATE RSPO Criteria for Certified Sustainable Palm Oil Our conservation effort at the CMZOO regarding palm oil and orangutans has strongly focused on the power of the consumer by encouraging individuals to support companies who use “sustainable palm oil” in their products. However, like any complex issue there are new developments and information surfacing which has caused the CMZOO to modify our approach. At the 5th Roundtable Meeting (RT5) in November of 2007 the RSPO launched a certification system, establishing criteria and a definition for certified sustainable palm oil (SPO) . The RSPO projects that evidence of certified SPO on the market could be seen as early as the first quarter of 2008. Because this is a new process CMZOO can not confirm any of the companies previously compiled on our consumer shopping guide as utilizing a certified sustainable palm oil source and have temporarily removed the shopping guide from the site. We CONTINUE to believe in the power of an individual to affect change by connecting others with a compelling idea. Our focus remains on educating the public about the palm oil crisis and strongly encouraging consumers to write companies using palm oil on the importance of using it from a certified source. In time we hope to be able to provide another shopping guide listing products utilizing certified sustainable palm oil.

Orangutan Foundation May Non-timber Forest Products Filed under ( Lamandau Wildlife Reserve Local Communities ) by orangutanfoundation @ 10:04 am This morning we attended a meeting organised by the local forestry department. They are creating “An Inventory of the Potential for Non-timber Forest Products” in the local government district. Non-timber forest products, or NTFP, as they are referred to in conservation jargon, are an often used argument for the protection of forests. Local people for millennia have exploited NTFP and although their impact on the local environment and wildlife may be debated, in comparison to bulldozers their impact on the forests was negligible. Therefore, we consider NTFP a valuable tool in protecting the forests and we are pleased that the local government is taking this initiative (see the photos below showing various examples of NTFPs). Fruit picking Making rattan baskets Rattan Baskets Other craft products This week I’ll have my own opportunity to assess the sustainability of NTFP. I’m off into the Lamandau Wildlife Reserve until Friday. A pleasant round of investigating reports of farming inside the reserve, plantation expansion on its border, and an assessment of activities on the western edge. Hopefully, I’ll see an orangutan or two. I’ll write again when I get back on Friday or Saturday.
