​ Stevenson: Orang-utan Miss Stevenson will not be adding any further comments on this page

 * O rangutans share 96.4% of our DNA, and are one of our closest relatives. They are the largest arboreal (tree-living) mammal on earth. The name ‘orangutan’ derives from the Indonesian/ Malay language, in which ‘orang hutan’ means ‘people of the forest’ || WWF Factsheet Link || (World Wildlife Fund, 2006) (Evolve Media, 2009) ||

You need to copy the exemplar above and enter information on your endangered animal. The key things to think about are how the animal is viewed by humans and how would your solutions be judged by humans. For example, If your species is not well known or you can't find any evidence to support your argument, please feel free to change the heading of this criteria to something where you can find evidence.
 * Is your animal a "flagship specie" like the Giant Panda for the WWF?
 * Would tourists be interested in seeing this animal? Why?
 * Would your grandchildren want to see your animal? Why is it important for future generations?
 * Would the general public approve of your solution? Why ... is there something special about your animal that makes it unique and the general public would be interested in it?

 * Evidence on public acceptibility of solution || * The African elephant is the biggest land animal in the world.
 * Kenya itself pocketed $50 million due to tourism to see the elephants.
 * Due to overwhelming demand in tourism to see the elephants, authorities should explain why they are charging for the tickets, what the elephants are in danger of and what their money can do to save the elephants. This can educate the tourists and therefore be more engaged in this topic.
 * Rehabilitation centres and national parks will not affect the average person as it would be smart to locate it in remote areas. However, for the agricultural farmers, compensation will be put in place if land is disturbed. || [|Bagheera - African Elephants]
